RNA Sequence of Astrovirus: Distinctive Genomic Organization and a Putative Retrovirus-Like Ribosomal Frameshifting Signal that Directs the Viral Replicase Synthesis

The genomic RNA of human astrovirus was sequenced and found to contain 6797 nt organized into three open reading frames (1a, 1b, and 2). A potential ribosomal frameshift site identified in the overlap region of open reading frames 1a and 1b consists of a "shifty" heptanucleotide and an RNA...
