Abstract excerpt
Reverse transcription, an essential step in the life cycle of all retroelements, is a complex, multistep process whose regulation is not yet clearly understood. We have recently shown that reverse transcription in the pararetrovirus duck hepatitis B virus is associated with complete dephosphorylation of the viral core protein, which forms the nucleocapsid wherein reverse transcription takes place. Here we present...
