A Structural Overview of RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerases from the Flaviviridae Family
8 Jun 2015
Abstract excerpt
RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRPs) from the Flaviviridae family are representatives of viral polymerases that carry out RNA synthesis through a de novo initiation mechanism. They share a ≈ 600-residue polymerase core that displays a canonical viral RdRP architecture resembling an encircled right hand with palm, fingers, and thumb domains surrounding the active site. Polymerase catalytic motifs A-E in the palm...
