Abstract excerpt
The poliovirus genome comprises a single open reading frame which is translated to give one large polyprotein. The proteolytic cascade involved in the processing of this polyprotein is not yet understood in full detail,particularly concerning the processing of P2-P3, the precursor to the viral nonstructural polypeptides, 2A, 2B, 2C, 3A, 3B, 3C, and 3D. To investigate the possibility that the cleavage events...
