Figure 6. Predictions for the relative infectivity for .

Figure 6

Inline graphic . (A) The relative infectivity is shown as a function of the fractions of envelope proteins defective of function A, Inline graphic, and the fraction of envelope proteins defective of function B, Inline graphic. The grey plane shows the predictions for a model in which the two functional units A and B are located on the same envelope protein, the blue plane the model in which these function can be located on different envelope proteins. (B) The difference between the two models is the highest, if the fraction of one mutant is fixed at 0.265. (C) The relative infectivity for an experimental system in which the fraction of one mutant is fixed at maximum distinguishability and the fraction of the other mutant envelope protein is varied.
