Nucleotide sequence at the 5' extremity of turnip yellow mosaic virus genome RNA.
The sequence of the first 110 nucleotides at the 5' extremity of turnip yellow mosaic virus genome RNA has been determined. The sequence is blocked at its 5' terminus with the group pppm(7)G and contains two AUG triplets. The determined sequence bears a strong resemblance to the 5' noncoding region of rabbit beta-globin mRNA. Region 95-103 of the sequence can base-pair with part of the 3' extremity of either the genome RNA or the coat protein mRNA.
