Abstract
VP30 is a phosphoprotein essential for the initiation of Ebola virus transcription. In this work, we have studied the effect of mutations in VP30 phosphorylation sites on the ebolavirus replication cycle by using a reverse genetics system. We demonstrate that VP30 is involved in reinitiation of gene transcription and that this activity is affected by mutations at the phosphorylation sites.Entities:
