Amino acids at the exposed C-terminus of the S coat protein of cowpea mosaic virus play different roles in particle formation and viral systemic movement

The icosahedral capsid of cowpea mosaic virus is formed by 60 copies of the large (L) and small (S) coat protein subunits. The 24-amino-acid C-terminal peptide of the S coat protein can undergo proteolytic cleavage without affecting particle stability or infectivity. Mutagenic studies have shown tha...
