Abstract excerpt
The Sindbis virus (SIN) nonstructural protein nsP4 possesses the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity required for the replication of the SIN genome and transcription of a subgenomic mRNA during infection. Isolation of this protein from other viral components of the RNA synthetic complex allowed the characterization of template requirements for nsP4-mediated genome replication. The major findings of this study...
