title: Myristylation of gag protein in human T-cell leukemia virus type-I and type-II.
abstract: We found that p19gag of HTLV-I and p23gag of HTLV-II are myristylated. The p28, which is immunologically cross-reactive with monoclonal antibody against p19gag of HTLV-I was also shown to be myristylated in the HTLV-I-infected cell lines MT-2 and HUT102. However, no myristylated p28 was found in HTLV-II-infected cell lines, Mo and Ton1.
