Reovirus guanylyltransferase is L2 gene product lambda 2.

Reovirus guanylyltransferase, studied as a covalent enzyme-GMP intermediate, was used to guanylate appropriate acceptor molecules in vitro to produce authentic cap structures. Guanylyltransferase activity was associated with lambda 2, the 140-kilodalton product of the L2 gene segment of reovirus serotypes 1 and 3.
