Transcription and RNA Replication of Tacaribe Virus Genome and Antigenome Analogs Require N and L Proteins: Z Protein Is an Inhibitor of These Processes
15 Dec 2001
Abstract excerpt
Tacaribe virus (TV), the prototype of the New World group of arenaviruses, comprises a single phylogenetic lineage together with four South American pathogenic producers of hemorrhagic disease. The TV genome consists of two single-stranded RNA segments called S and L. A reconstituted transcription-replication system based on plasmid-supplied TV-like RNAs and TV proteins was established. Plasmid expression was...
