Mutagenesis of the conserved 51-nucleotide region of Sindbis virus.

Journal of virology - 1 Apr 1990

Abstract excerpt

We have constructed 25 site-specific mutations in a domain of 51 nucleotides in Sindbis virus that is highly conserved among all alphaviruses sequenced to date. These 51 nucleotides are capable of forming two hairpin structures and are found from nucleotides 155 to 205 in Sindbis virus within the...
