African swine fever virus (ASFV), a large enveloped DNA-containing virus, infects domestic and wild pigs, and multiplies in soft ticks, causing an economically relevant hemorrhagic disease. Evaluation of the nuclear import ability of ASFV p10 protein was the major purpose of the present work. Two approaches were used to determine if p10 protein is imported into the nucleus by an active process: a yeast-based nu...
Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling activity of the African swine fever virus p37 protein, a major structural protein of this highly complex virus, has been recently reported. The systematic characterization of the nuclear export ability of this protein constituted the major purpose of the present study. We report that both the N- and C-terminal regions of p37 protein are actively exported from the nucleus to the cytop...
