[Polypeptides p14 and p31 of the African swine fever virus--early proteins located on the membrane of the infected cell]. / Polipeptidy p14 i p31 virusa afrikanskoi chumy svinei--rannie belki, lokalizovannye na membrane infitsirovannoi kletki.

African swine fever virus polypeptides p14 and p31 are synthesized in the presence of phosphonacetic acid which inhibits viral DNA replication, and therefore they are early viral proteins. These polypeptides were found to be localized on plasma membranes by immunofluorescence with monospecific antisera and monoclonal antibodies and by selective solubilization of infected cells. The p14-specific antibodies mediate complement-dependent cytolysis and antibody-dependent cytotoxicity of the cells infected with African swine fever virus.

[The identification of the membrane proteins of human and animal viruses]. / Identifikatsiia membrannykh belkov virusov cheloveka i zhivotnykh.

The review deals with the methods of identification of virus-specific proteins on virion and infected cell surface. The isotopic labeling of membrane proteins, their extraction by proteolytic enzymes and selective solubilization by detergents are considered. The plasmatic membrane isolation by centrifugation and by means of microcarriers is described. The methods of membrane protein localization using monoclonal antibodies and radioimmunoprecipitation are presented.
