Structural definition of substrate recognition by model RNA capping enzymes and the identification of a novel class of viral RNA capping enzymes

The RNA cap structure is a fundamental feature of most known eukaryotic mRNAs and some viral RNAs, It is important for the stability, transport and translation of mRNAs. It is co-transcriptionally synthesized via the action of 3 consecutive enzymatic reactions: (1) A RNA triphosphatase which cleaves...
