Vaccinia Virus Serpin-1 Deletion Mutant Exhibits a Host Range Defect Characterized by Low Levels of Intermediate and Late mRNAs [PDF]
Orthopoxviruses encode three serpin homologs—SPI-1, SPI-2 and SPI-3—of which SPI-2 has been well characterized as an inhibitor of ICE-like proteases. A rabbitpox virus SPI-1 deletion mutant exhibited a host range restriction in human lung A549 and pig ...
