Abstract excerpt

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae retroviruslike element Ty3 encodes the major structural proteins capsid (CA) and nucleocapsid in the GAG3 open reading frame. The Ty3 CA protein contains a sequence (QGX2EX5FX3LX3H, where H is a hydrophobic residue) which has not been observed in other retrotransposon...
