The time course of tick-borne encephalitis virus cell-free protein synthesis was studied by using either [35S]-methionine or formyl[35S]methionyl-tRNAMet/f as substrates, and the [35S]methionine-labelled products were compared by fingerprinting tryptic peptides. An intermediate in the protein processing, the polypeptide doublet p36/33, was characterized and a tentative model for flavivirus structural protein synthesis and processing was proposed.
