In vitro synthesis of a unique RNA species by a T particle of vesicular stomatitis virus.

Abstract

A T particle of vesicular stomatitis virus, containing most of the L-gene region, has been isolated. In vitro, these T particles synthesize exclusively a small adenine-rich RNA that is complementary to the T-particle genome. Partial sequence analysis of this small RNA indicates that it is an RNA of unique sequence with a length of approximately 45 nucleotides.
