a, b The RSV polymerase with modeled RNA template and transcript (PDB: 6QCV). The same color scheme for RSV proteins as Fig. 2a. The modeled RNA template and RNA transcript are shown in yellow and pink, respectively. (Supplementary Fig. 11 for additional comparisons). The 3′ RNA template enters the RdRp from the bottom, and 5′ RNA transcript exits from the top. The upstream 3′ RNA template is drawn in black line.
