Abstract: A number of amino acid substitutions, e.g.,
L26H,
A30T,
S31N and
G34E reduced the activity of the
M2 protein of A/chicken/Germany/34 (Rostock) and caused a substantial increase in expression of the low-pH form of
HA.
Abstract: Furthermore, in double mutants the 127T mutation suppressed the attenuating effects of the
A30T and
S31N mutations on
M2 activity.
Abstract: The influence of primary structure on the consequences of particular amino acid changes was further emphasized by the contrasting effects of the
G34E mutation on the activities of two closely related proteins, causing an increase in the activity of the
