Evidence
|
This finding, together with the results of the mapping experiments, establishes that amino acid substitutions at the N-terminus of the 2A core protein (A36Tor G63V) reduce the stringency of virion secretion, whereas amino acid changes at the C-terminus of the 4B core protein (T147A, R151C, D153G, or Q179K) enhance genome maturity of secreted virions.
