Genome organization and interaction with capsid protein in a multipartite RNA virus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We report the asymmetric reconstruction of the single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) content in one of the three otherwise identical virions of a multipartite RNA virus, brome mosaic virus (BMV).

Dimerisation of HIV-2 genomic RNA is linked to efficient RNA packaging, normal particle maturation and viral infectivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Retroviruses selectively encapsidate two copies of their genomic RNA, the Gag protein binding a specific RNA motif in the 5' UTR of the genome.

Factors associated with prolonged viral RNA shedding in patients with COVID-19

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background An outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is becoming a public health emergency. Data are limited on the duration and host factors related to viral shedding.

Roles of the linker region of RNA helicase A in HIV-1 RNA metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
RNA helicase A (RHA) promotes multiple steps in HIV-1 production including transcription and translation of viral RNA, annealing of primer tRNA(Lys3) to viral RNA, and elevating the ratio of unspliced to spliced viral RNA.

Force for ancient and recent life: viral and stem-loop RNA consortia promote life. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Lytic viruses were thought to kill the most numerous host (i.e., kill the winner). But persisting viruses/defectives can also protect against viruses, especially in a ubiquitous virosphere. In 1991, Yarmolinsky et al.

Dampened antiviral immunity to intravaginal exposure to RNA viral pathogens allows enhanced viral replication

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2016
Khan et al. demonstrate that the lower female reproductive tract is exceptionally vulnerable to infection by LCMV and Zika virus, as intravaginal exposure to these RNA viral pathogens elicits a dampened antiviral immune response.

Detectable 2019-nCoV viral RNA in blood is a strong indicator for the further clinical severity

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2020
The novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infection caused pneumonia. we retrospectively analyzed the virus presence in the pharyngeal swab, blood, and the anal swab detected by real-time PCR in the clinical lab.

Nucleocapsid-Independent Specific Viral RNA Packaging via Viral Envelope Protein and Viral RNA Signal [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2003
ABSTRACT For any of the enveloped RNA viruses studied to date, recognition of a specific RNA packaging signal by the virus's nucleocapsid (N) protein is the first step described in the process of viral RNA packaging. In the murine coronavirus a selective interaction between the viral transmembrane envelope protein M and the viral

RNA Structures and Their Role in Selective Genome Packaging

open access: yesViruses, 2021
To generate infectious viral particles, viruses must specifically select their genomic RNA from milieu that contains a complex mixture of cellular or non-genomic viral RNAs.

Rapid incorporation of Favipiravir by the fast and permissive viral RNA polymerase complex results in SARS-CoV-2 lethal mutagenesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The ongoing Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), has emphasized the urgent need for antiviral therapeutics.
