Abstract
The current understanding of the structural and functional significance of the components of the rabies virus replication machinery is incomplete. Although structures are available for the nucleocapsid protein in complex with RNA, and also for portions of P, information on both the structure and function of the L protein is lacking. This study reports the expression and purification of the full-length L protein of RABV and the characterization of its RdRP activity in vitro The study provides a new assay that has utility for screening inhibitors and understanding their mechanisms of action, as well as defining new interactions that are required for RdRP activity.
