Cleavage of foot-and-mouth disease virus polyprotein is mediated by residues located within a 19 amino acid sequence

Ryan, M. D., King, A. M. Q., Thomas, G. P.·1991·Journal of General Virology

Abstract

The 2A region of the foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) polyprotein is only 16 amino acids in length. During synthesis of the FMDV polyprotein a primary proteolytic processing event occurs between the 2A and 2B regions of the polyprotein. The activity responsible for this cleavage is not known but it is thought that either an unidentified virus-encoded proteinase may be responsible, or that 2A acts as a substrate for a host cell proteinase. A series of recombinant FMDV polyproteins has been constructed in which sequences to the N- or C-terminal side of the 2A region have been deleted. Analysis of the processing of these polyproteins shows that a 19 amino acid sequence spanning 2A is sufficient to mediate polyprotein cleavage at a site immediately C-terminal to 2A, whereas deletions extending into the 2A region prevent cleavage.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
