Phophorylation of polyoma and SV40 virus proteins. 1977

B A Ponder, and A K Robbins, and L V Crawford

The polypeptides of polyoma and SV40 virions are phosphorylated. An estimate of the amount of phosphorylation of the major virus capsid protein (VPI) has been made using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis to resolve phosphorylated from non-phosphorylated forms. The results suggest that in both polyoma and SV40 virions about 12% of VPI molecules are phosphorylated. In unassembled VPI molecules immunoprecipitated from extracts of infected cells the proportion is greater, about 33%. The possibility that phosphorylated VPI may form the penton proteins of the virus capsid is discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D010710 Phosphates Inorganic salts of phosphoric acid. Inorganic Phosphate,Phosphates, Inorganic,Inorganic Phosphates,Orthophosphate,Phosphate,Phosphate, Inorganic
D010750 Phosphoproteins Phosphoprotein
D011120 Polyomavirus A genus of potentially oncogenic viruses of the family POLYOMAVIRIDAE. These viruses are normally present in their natural hosts as latent infections. The virus is oncogenic in hosts different from the species of origin.

D002213 Capsid The outer protein protective shell of a virus, which protects the viral nucleic acid. Capsids are composed of repeating units (capsomers or capsomeres) of CAPSID PROTEINS which when assembled together form either an icosahedral or helical shape.
