African Swine Fever Virus Guanylyltransferase
The gene coding for the guanylyltransferase of African swine fever virus has been identified and sequenced. The gene, designated NP868R, is located within fragments EcoRI N' and D of the virus genome (BA71V strain) and encodes a protein with a predicted molecular mass of 99.9 kDa that shares significant similarity with the large subunit of both ...
