The Roles of Pol and Env in the Assembly Pathway of Human Foamy Virus
1 May 1998
Abstract excerpt
Human foamy virus (HFV) is the prototype of the Spumavirus genus of retroviruses. These viruses have a genomic organization close to that of other complex retroviruses but have similarities to hepadnaviruses such as human hepatitis B virus (HBV). Both HFV and HBV express their Pol protein independently of their structural proteins. Retroviruses and hepadnaviruses differ in their requirements for particle assembly...
