The 3' splice site of influenza A segment 7 mRNA can exist in two conformations: a pseudoknot and a hairpin.
The 3' splice site of influenza A segment 7 is used to produce mRNA for the M2 ion-channel protein, which is critical to the formation of viable influenza virions. Native gel analysis, enzymatic/chemical structure probing, and oligonucleotide binding studies of a 63 nt fragment, containing the...
