Abstract excerpt

The tRNA-like structure at the 3' end of turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV) RNA was studied in order to determine the role of this structure in the initiation of minus-strand synthesis in vitro. Deletions in the 5'-to-3' direction up to the pseudoknot structure did not result in a decrease of tran...
