Abstract excerpt
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) has several distinct biochemical activities, including initiation of RNA synthesis by a de novo mechanism, extension from a primed template, nontemplated nucleotide addition, and synthesis of a recombinant RNA product from two or more noncovalently linked templates (template switch). All of these activities require specific interaction with...
