Sequencing the cap-snatching repertoire of H1N1 influenza provides insight into the mechanism of viral transcription initiation
The influenza polymerase cleaves host RNAs ~10-13 nucleotides downstream of their 5' ends and uses this capped fragment to prime viral mRNA synthesis. To better understand this process of cap snatching, we used high-throughput sequencing to determine the 5' ends of A/WSN/33 (H1N1) influenz...
