title: Nucleolar accumulation of Semliki Forest virus nucleocapsid C protein: influence of metabolic status, cytoskeleton and receptors.
abstract: The nucleolar accumulation of Semliki Forest Virus (SFV) C protein was examined as a function of intact microtubules, intact microfilaments and accessible intermediate filaments. The cytoskeletal components do not seem to play a role in directing C protein to the nucleolus but nucleolar accumulation is energy-dependent and saturable. This suggests the involvement of some receptor- (or chaperon-) interaction.
