Structure and function analysis of the poliovirus <i>cis</i>-acting replication element (CRE)
1 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
The poliovirus cis-acting replication element (CRE) templates the uridylylation of VPg, the protein primer for genome replication. The CRE is a highly conserved structural RNA element in the enteroviruses and located within the polyprotein-coding region of the genome. We have determined the native structure of the CRE, defined the regions of the structure critical for activity, and investigated the influence of...
