Abstract excerpt
Vaccinia virus nucleoside triphosphate phosphohydrolase I (NPH I) is an essential early gene transcription termination factor. The C-terminal end of NPH I binds to the N-terminal end of the H4L subunit (RAP94) of the virion RNA polymerase. This interaction is required for transcription termination and transcript release. To refine our understanding of the specific amino acids in the C-terminal end of NPH I...
