Myristoylation of budgerigar fledgling disease virus capsid protein VP2.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

We present evidence that the structural protein VP2 of budgerigar fledgling disease virus, an avian polyomavirus, is specifically modified by covalent attachment of myristic acid. The fatty acid linkage is insensitive to hydroxylamine treatment and thus represents the amide type of fatty acylation of proteins.
