Abstract
The nucleotide sequence predicted to encode the precursor to virion st ructural protein VI (preVI) of mouse adenovirus (Ad) serotype-1 (MAV-1 ) was determined, The 237-amino-acid sequence has 45% identity and 66% similarity to the human Ad serotype-2 preVI sequence, There is a mark ed conservation at the C terminus, the last eleven residues of which m ay be necessary for activating the Ad endoproteinase, and at the N ter minus, including the consensus endoproteinase cleavage site.
