Abstract excerpt
The fusion gene of peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV-F), a paramyxovirus, contains an unusual long 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) with a high GC content that is capable of folding into secondary structure proximally to the 5' cap. Sequence analysis further suggested that the proximal end of this UTR contains a nine-nucleotide sequence which could perfectly complement the 18S rRNA and might affect...
