Km. Brierley et al., A MOBILE ELEMENT ON A VIRUS PARTICLE SURFACE IDENTIFIED BY NUCLEAR-MAGNETIC-RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY, Biochemical journal, 293, 1993, pp. 657-659
The presence of a mobile element in the coat protein of pepper ringspo
t tobravirus (PRV) has been established by H-1 n.m.r. spectroscopy; tw
o-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (COSY) measurements show that t
his element consists of alanine, asparagine, glycine, proline, serine
and threonine only. By reference to the amino acid sequence of the coa
t protein, it is concluded that the mobile element is associated with
the C-terminal region and consists of between 11 and 38 residues.
