RESUMO
C-and N-polyhedrins from a cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus (a double-stranded RNA virus) and a nuclear polyhedrosis virus (a DNA virus), respectively, of Orgyia pseudotsugata were compared. Although both polyhedrins appear to stabilize their respective virions and have similar molecular weights, they differed in amino acid composition, tryptic peptide elution profiles from a cation-exchange resin, and N-terminal amino acid sequence and showed no antigenic relatedness. This suggests that these two proteins originated independently of one another.
