Research Abstract |
The baculoviruses possess a large circular, dsDNA genome encapsidated within a rodshaped virion. During the transcriptome analysis of baculovirus-infected cells, we identified more than one hundred of putative long non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), most of which are expressed from recognized baculovirus early or late promoter motifs. To understand better the roles of these putative ncRNAs, we have generated 13 mutant NPVs whose ncRNA promoters are inactivated. We found that most of the mutants showed defects in virus growth, indicating that baculovirus longncRNAs play important roles in virus propagation.
