Poly A and symmetrical transcription of SV40 DNA
Abstract
A scheme is proposed for the maturation of SV40 message late in the infection of monkey cells: precursor viral RNA molecules are transcribed symmetrically after which poly A is added to both self-complementary transcripts. Certain sequences are then degraded to yield poly A-containing, non-complementary mature message.
