A protein of molar mass 12 kDa incorporates into the membrane of ASF virus-infected cells

Virus Res. 1988 Sep;11(2):193-7. doi: 10.1016/0168-1702(88)90043-3.

Abstract

An African swine fever virus-induced protein of molar mass 12 kDa (p12) was studied in virus-infected Vero cells using the monoclonal antibody 18B.B11. Protein p12 is incorporated into the membrane of infected cells about 7 h post-infection and is not present in purified African swine fever virus particles. The synthesis of protein p12 is sensitive to cytosine arabinoside.
