Abstract
The capsids of minute virus of mice (MVM) consist of two closely related proteins, VP1 and VP2. We inactivated the VP1 gene in an infectious clone of MVM DNA by frameshift mutation. After transfection of mutated DNA, capsids consisting of VP2 only were made. They can package negative-strand DNA, and they specifically bind MVM 3'-terminal hairpin DNA.Entities:
