The red clover necrotic mosaic dianthovirus capsid protein is expressed in vivo from a subgenomic RNA (sgRNA) identical to the 3'-terminal 1.5 kb of RNA-1. The 5' leader sequence of the capsid protein sgRNA is 62 nucleotides, contains a 14-nucleotide putative promoter sequence homologous to the RNA-1 5' terminus, and exhibits a high level of similarity with the tobacco mosaic virus 5' leader translational enhancer element omega. Analysis of the RNA-1 secondary structure, in the region adjacent to the position where the 5' end of the sgRNA was mapped, predicts a stable stem-loop which includes the putative sgRNA promoter element. It is suggested that this structure is important for recognition of the sgRNA transcriptional initiation from the full-length negative-sense RNA-1.

D012330	RNA, Double-Stranded	RNA consisting of two strands as opposed to the more prevalent single-stranded RNA. Most of the double-stranded segments are formed from transcription of DNA by intramolecular base-pairing of inverted complementary sequences separated by a single-stranded loop. Some double-stranded segments of RNA are normal in all organisms.	Double-Stranded RNA,Double Stranded RNA,RNA, Double Stranded
