Abstract excerpt
Genome replication of poliovirus, as yet unsolved, involves numerous viral polypeptides that arise from proteolysis of the viral polyprotein. One of these proteins is 3AB, an RNA-binding protein with multiple functions, that serves also as the precursor for the genome-linked protein VPg (= 3B). Eight clustered charged amino acid-to-alanine mutants in the 3AB coding region of poliovirus were constructed and...
