| General description: | RNA, from bacteriophage MS2 is composed of 3569 nucleotides. MS2 bacteriophage acts as a model system in studying molecular biology processes, such as viral RNA replication, process of translation and physiology of infected cells. MS2 RNA codes for three viral polypeptides namely, protein A, coat protein and RNA replicase complex. Protein A and coat protein make up the structure of MS2 virus. |
