RESUMO
The structural proteins of mature LPP-1 particles and the patterns of protein synthesis after LPP-1 infection have been examined by electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels. Structural proteins account for 35% of the LPP-1 genome, and proteins that would require about 65% of the total coding capacity have been detected after infection. The major head proteins have molecular weights of 39,000 and 13,000, whereas the major tail protein is an 80,000-molecular-weight species. Host protein synthesis is depressed soon after infection and appears to be entirely shut off by 5 hr. Three classes of viral proteins are distinguished in infected cells, based on their time course of synthesis and their presence in mature virions.
