Sequence of a RNA templated by the 3'-OH RNA terminus of defective interfering particles of vesicular stomatitis virus.
We have sequenced the endogenous RNA polymerase product produced by disrupted purified virions of vesicular stomatitis virus defective interfering particles by using the newer one-dimensional rapid gel sequencing techniques and confirming this with a modified two-dimensional gel vectoring technique. The sequence of this 46-nucleotide RNA is: 5'(pp)pACGAAGACCACAAAACCA-GAUAAAAAAUAAAAACCACAAGAGGG(U)COH3'. We infer that this sequence is identical to the sequence at the 5' end of infectious vesicular stomatitis virus RNA and is complementary to the sequence of the 3'-OH terminus of this defective interfering particle genome RNA.
