The NS-1 polypeptide of the autonomous parvovirus MVM is a nuclear phosphoprotein.
Cells infected with the autonomous parvovirus MVM synthesize a major virally coded non-structural protein which accumulates in the nucleus and is phosphorylated to a significant extent. Peptide map analysis shows that this in vivo product has the same primary sequence as the NS-1 protein previously identified in the in vitro translation products of MVM encoded mRNA, and as such is the product of the largest messenger RNA species, a spliced 4.8 kb (R1) transcript. In vivo NS-1 exists in two predominant forms, a phosphorylated 84-85 kDa species and an unphosphorylated or poorly phosphorylated 83 kDa form. Both forms are preferentially extracted from the nucleus using an extraction procedure which enriches for replication complexes.
