Direct evidence that the poly(A) tail of influenza A virus mRNA is synthesized by reiterative copying of a U track in the virion RNA template.
The poly(A) tail of influenza virus mRNA is thought to be synthesized by reiterative copying of the U track near the 5' end of the virion RNA template. This has been widely accepted as a plausible hypothesis, but until now there has been no direct experimental evidence for it. Here, we report s...
