Archives of Virology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The viral envelope glycoprotein gp85 is released from purified Rous sarcoma virus by treatment with 2-mercaptoethanol, while the second surface antigen gp35 remains associated with the membrane of intact virus particles. The data represented substantiate and extend previous observations on the Rous sarcoma virus glycoprotein complex.
