A trans-activator-like structure in RCNMV RNA1 evokes the origin of the trans-activator in RNA2. by Laura R Newburn, K Andrew White

“…However, by examining results from RCNMV genome analyses in the ViRAD virus (re-)annotation database, a putative functional RNA element in the polymerase-coding region of RNA1 was identified. Structural and functional analyses revealed that the novel RNA element adopts a TA-like structure (TALS) and, similar to the requirement of the TA for RNA2 replication, the TALS is necessary for the replication of RNA1. …”
