Further Identification and Characterization of Novel Intermediate and Mature Cleavage Products Released from the ORF 1b Region of the Avian Coronavirus Infectious Bronchitis Virus 1a/1b Polyprotein 2001-09-30 .txt text/plain 5643 279 51 In cells infected with avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), three proteins of 100, 39, and 35 kDa, respectively, were previously identified as mature cleavage products released from the 1b region of the 1a/1b polyprotein by the 3C-like proteinase. Immunofluorescent staining of IBV-infected cells and cells expressing individual cleavage products showed that the 100-, 68-, and 58-kDa proteins were associated with the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum, and the 39and 35-kDa proteins displayed diffuse distribution patterns. Taken together with the Q 3928 -S 2929 dipeptide bond (encoded by nucleotides 12310-12315) identified as the N-terminal cleavage site of the 100-kDa protein, cleavage at these positions would result in the release of five mature products with molecular masses of approximately 100, 68, 58, 39, and 35 kDa. Among them, the 100-, 39-, and 35-kDa proteins were specifically identified in IBV-infected cells (Liu et al., 1994 . ./cache/cord-328046-5us4se5o.txt ./txt/cord-328046-5us4se5o.txt
