Abstract

Inhibition of RNA synthesis of the LH strain of type 3 poliovirus at the restrictive temperature occurs concurrently with the breakdown of noncapsid virus-specific peptide 2. This finding, along with other reported data (B.D. Korant, In Proteases and Biological Control, p. 621-644, 1975), suggests that noncapsid virus-specific peptide 2 is a component of the viral replicase.
