CVB4 footprints on CAR during persistent infection in Panc-1 cells. Mutations with a frequency ≥ 20% obtained by deep sequencing of 2 CVB4 independent acute infections and 2 independent persistent infections in Panc-1 cells, were integrated in the sequence of the CVB4E2 published strain (Accession number: AF311939.1). Translated amino acid sequences were obtained using blastx (NCBI). VP1(a) and VP2(b) sequences were aligned along with sequences corresponding to CVB3/28 and CVB3/Nancy strains, using Uniprot software. Footprints of the virus on CAR are shown in blue boxes.
