Abstract excerpt
A partially conserved region spanning amino acids 142 to 191 of the Sindbis virus (SIN) nsP4 core polymerase is implicated in host restriction, elongation, and promoter recognition. We extended the analysis of this region by substituting Ser, Ala, or Lys for a highly conserved Arg183 residue immediately preceding its absolutely conserved Ser184-Ala-Val-Pro-Ser188 sequence. In chicken cells, the nsP4 Arg183...
