The host RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain is the anchor for replication of the influenza virus genome

This study shows that host RNA polymerase II's C-terminal domain, along with ANP32, enhances influenza virus polymerase replication activity, suggesting host RNAP II anchors viral transcription and replication.
