FIG. 2.
Immunoblot of prM(ΔR88)-mf virus particles, with prM(ΔR88) and WT as controls. The membrane was stained with a polyclonal rabbit serum raised against protein prM recognizing prM and its cleavage products, M and M*. The positions of the proteins prM, M* (M dimer; see Materials and Methods), and M are indicated on the right. Bands corresponding to proteins M and M* were detected only in samples of WT and prM(ΔR88)-mf.
