Abstract excerpt
The viral replicase complex of positive-stranded RNA viruses interacts with cis-acting elements that are usually located at the termini of the viral RNAs. On comparison of the replication requirement of a tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)-based defective RNA (dRNA) and its helper virus, we found different requirements for replication of TMV RNAs in cis and in trans. The level of replication of full-length TMV RNA...
