Abstract

Two genes for virus-associated VA RNAs in the human adenovirus type 7 (Ad7) genome are compared to Ad2, Ad4, Ad5, simian VA RNAs, and pol III transcripts of Epstein-Barr virus. The newly identified VA RNA-encoding genes of Ad7 contain two relatively conserved intragenic promoter (elements A and B), the double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PK) active site-binding domain and transcriptional terminators. The conserved features extend to the VA RNA genes of simian and avian origin.
