Transcription of the vaccinia virus genome is mediated by a virus-encoded multisubunit DNA-dependent RNA polymerase in conjunction with early-, intermediate-, and late-stage-specific factors. Previous studies indicated that two virus-encoded proteins (capping enzyme and VITF-1) and one unidentified cellular protein (VITF-2) are required for specific transcription of an intermediate promoter template in vitro. We have now extensively purified an additional virus-induced intermediate transcription factor with a native mass of approximately 100 kDa.
痘苗病毒基因组的转录由一种病毒编码的多亚基DNA依赖性RNA聚合酶与早期、中期和晚期特异性因子共同介导。先前的研究表明,在体外,中间启动子模板的特异性转录需要两种病毒编码蛋白(加帽酶和VITF-1)和一种未鉴定的细胞蛋白(VITF-2)。我们现在已经广泛纯化了另一种病毒诱导的中间转录因子,其天然质量约为100 kDa。
