Definition: The template-RNA is the template for protein synthesis; the form of RNA that carries information from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome sites of protein synthesis in the cell
Context: To examine the role of the N protein in template-RNA functions of N-RNA complex, we identified a highly conserved region spanning residues (282)GLSSKSPYSS(291) in the N protein of Rhabdoviruses and subjected it to alanine-scanning mutagenesis.
