Kissing Interaction between 3′ Noncoding and Coding Sequences Is Essential for Porcine Arterivirus RNA Replication
1 Feb 2002
Abstract excerpt
We used an infectious cDNA clone of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) to investigate the presence of essential replication elements in the region of the genome encoding the structural proteins. Deletion analysis showed that a stretch of 34 nucleotides (14653 to 14686) within ORF7, which encodes the nucleocapsid protein, is essential for RNA replication. Strand-specific reverse...
