Virus release by mutants
| MLV | Virus release (%)a |
|---|---|
| wtb | 100 |
| C39S | 45 ± 10 |
| ΔNC(16-23) | 2.5 ± 1 |
| PR− | 127 ± 23 |
| C17- | 58 ± 25 |
| C37- | 2.3 ± 0.7 |
| C60- | 0.35 ± 0.25 |
The amount of virus released in pelletable form over a 24-h period was compared with the amount of viral protein remaining in the cells. Virus and viral protein levels were measured by immunoblotting with anti-p30CA. The released/cell-associated ratio was set at 100% for wild-type MLV.
wt, wild type.
