Abstract excerpt
The rabies virus large (L) protein interacts with its cofactor phosphoprotein (P protein) to function as an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). The C-terminal domain (CTD) of the L protein plays a critical role in P protein binding. We previously reported that the highly conserved NPYNE sequence in the hydrophilic region of the CTD (positions 1929-1933 of the L protein [L1929-1933]) is important for both P...
