Abstract excerpt
Rous sarcoma virus pre-mRNA contains an element known as the negative regulator of splicing (NRS) that acts to inhibit viral RNA splicing. The NRS binds serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins, hnRNP H and the U1/U11 snRNPs, and appears to inhibit splicing by acting as a decoy 5' splice site. Deletions within the gag gene that encompass the NRS also lead to increased read-through past the viral polyadenylation site,...
