Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis B viruses replicate by reverse transcription of a genomic RNA which harbors terminal redundancies. The synthesis of this RNA requires that transcription proceed twice through the polyadenylation (pA) site which, in mammalian strains, is flanked by the variant hexanucleotide UAUAAA and a...
