Fatty acylation of Vaccinia virus proteins : dual myristylation and palmitylation of the A-type inclusion protein

The attachment of myristic acid to the N-terminal glycine residue of many eukaryotic and viral proteins is often essential for the acquisition of the protein's biological activity. Vaccinia virus (VV), the prototype member of the Poxviridae, expresses several myristylated proteins during the co...
