Identification and DNA sequence of the large subunit of the capping enzyme from Shope fibroma virus

Virology. 1991 Aug;183(2):773-7. doi: 10.1016/0042-6822(91)91009-6.

Abstract

A 3.6-kb region of the Shope fibroma virus (SFV) BamHI D fragment located in the central region of the viral genome was sequenced. Three open reading frames (ORFs) were identified, D3R, D4L, and D5R. Each of these ORFs have a counterpart organized identically within the HindIII fragment D of the vaccinia virus genome (D1R, D2L, and D3R). Homology scores and assays of viral cores indicate that SFV D3R encodes the large subunit of the SFV mRNA capping enzyme.
