Site of the base change in the vaccinia virus DNA polymerase gene which confers aphidicolin resistance

Journal of Virology
F M DeFilippes

Abstract

An aphidicolin-resistant mutant of vaccinia virus has been shown to encode an altered viral DNA polymerase that is more resistant to aphidicolin. Marker transfer experiments with the DNA from the resistant virus localized the mutation site to an RsaI segment within the portion of the HindIII-E segment which has been shown to contain the viral DNA polymerase gene. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the mutant DNA showed a single GC to AT transition at position 2430, which indicates a leucine-to-methionine change at residue 645 in the protein.

Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Antivirals

Antivirals are medications that are used specifically for treating viral infections. Discover the latest research on antivirals here.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.
