Disruption of Specific RNA-RNA Interactions in a Double-Stranded RNA Virus Inhibits Genome Packaging and Virus Infectivity. [PDF]
Bluetongue virus (BTV) causes hemorrhagic disease in economically important livestock. The BTV genome is organized into ten discrete double-stranded RNA molecules (S1-S10) which have been suggested to follow a sequential packaging pathway from smallest ...

Reovirus Low-Density Particles Package Cellular RNA
Packaging of segmented, double-stranded RNA viral genomes requires coordination of viral proteins and RNA segments. For mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus), evidence suggests either all ten or zero viral RNA segments are simultaneously packaged in a ...

Packaging signal of influenza A virus
Influenza A virus (IAV) contains a genome with eight single-stranded, negative-sense RNA segments that encode 17 proteins. During its assembly, all eight separate viral RNA (vRNA) segments are incorporated into virions in a selective manner.

Specificity of retroviral RNA packaging [PDF]
Encapsidation of retroviral RNA has been shown to be dependent on specific cis-acting signals, in particular, the packaging region (psi) located near the 5' end of the retroviral genome. In this report, we show that a 683-base avian extended packaging sequence (psi+) derived from Rous sarcoma virus will direct packaging of heterologous hygromycin mRNA ...

Modified RNAs and predictions with the ViennaRNA Package
Abstract Motivation In living organisms, many RNA molecules are modified post-transcriptionally. This turns the widely known four-letter RNA alphabet ACGU into a much larger one with currently more than 300 known distinct modified bases.

RNA Origami: Packaging a Segmented Genome in Orbivirus Assembly and Replication
Understanding how viruses with multi-segmented genomes incorporate one copy of each segment into their capsids remains an intriguing question. Here, we review our recent progress and describe the advancements made in understanding the genome packaging ...

Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), a bunyavirus, has a single-stranded, negative-sense tri-segmented RNA genome, consisting of L, M and S RNAs. An infectious virion carries two envelope glycoproteins, Gn and Gc, along with ribonucleoprotein complexes ...

Packaging of viral RNAs in virions of adenoviruses [PDF]
Earlier, we detected viral RNAs packaged in the porcine adenovirus (PAdV) -3 virions. Using Southern blot analysis, we further demonstrated that the viral RNAs were predominantly packaged in CsCl purified mature capsids (containing viral genome) than empty/intermediate capsids. Some of the packaged viral RNAs appear to be polyadenylated.

Sorting and packaging of RNA into extracellular vesicles shape intracellular transcript levels
Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are released by nearly every cell type and have attracted much attention for their ability to transfer protein and diverse RNA species from donor to recipient cells.

RNA packaging in lentiviruses [PDF]
The selection by a lentivirus of its genomic RNA from the background of a vast excess of cellular messenger RNAs and sub-genomic viral RNAs occurs with high specificity. The nature and site of the specific interaction between the unspliced RNA genome and the gag polyprotein, which is responsible for its capture, is still poorly understood and the ...
