Evidence
|
Subsequent NMR studies revealed that point mutations in the N-terminal region of MA (e.g., V7R, L8A, or L8I) that impaired membrane targeting of Gag and inhibited virus assembly and release did not exhibit concentration-dependent myristate exposure. Structural data revealed conformational changes that appeared to be responsible for stabilizing the myristate-sequestered species and inhibiting exposure.
