RNA packaging and uncoating in simple single-stranded RNA viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Simple (non-enveloped) small, positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses infect hosts from all kingdoms of life. However, their assembly and uncoating processes remain poorly understood. For turnip crinkle virus (TCV), 3D reconstructions by cryoelectron

The RNA Virus Database [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2008
The RNA Virus Database is a database and web application describing the genome organization and providing analytical tools for the 938 known species of RNA virus. It can identify submitted nucleotide sequences, can place them into multiple whole-genome alignments (in species where more than one isolate has been fully sequenced) and contains translated ...

Comparison of 6/94 Virus and Sendai Virus RNA by RNA-RNA Hybridization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1974
The genomic RNA of 6/94 virus, an agent isolated from the brains of multiple sclerosis patients, was studied for sequence homology by RNA-RNA hybridization with closely related Sendai virus and another paramyxovirus virus, Newcastle disease virus.

Electrostatics and the assembly of an RNA virus [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2005
Electrostatic interactions play a central role in the assembly of single-stranded RNA viruses. Under physiological conditions of salinity and acidity, virus capsid assembly requires the presence of genomic material that is oppositely charged to the core proteins. In this paper we apply basic polymer physics and statistical mechanics methods to the self-

The Rna-Dependent RNA Polymerase of the Influenza a Virus [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Virology, 2014
The influenza A virus causes a highly contagious respiratory disease that significantly impacts our economy and health. Its replication and transcription is catalyzed by the viral RNA polymerase. This enzyme is also crucial for the virus, because it is involved in the adaptation of zoonotic strains.

Possible roles of endogenous RNA virus elements in RNA virus infection

open access: yesUirusu, 2016
Endogenous bornavirus-like elements (EBLs) are ancient bornavirus-derived sequence in the genomes of eukaryotes. Expression profile of EBLs suggests that, although most of the EBLs in mammalian genomes have lost their coding potential, many of them are transcribed in a cell-type specific or ubiquitous manner. This observation leads us to speculate that

Detection of genome-scale ordered RNA structure (GORS) in genomes of positive-stranded RNA viruses:Implications for virus evolution and host persistence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Discrete RNA secondary and higher-order structures, typically local in extent, play a fundamental role in RNA virus replication. Using new bioinformatics analysis methods, we have identified genome-scale ordered RNA structure (GORS) in many genera and ...

Crystal structure of Schmallenberg orthobunyavirus nucleoprotein-RNA complex reveals a novel RNA sequestration mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is a newly emerged orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) that has caused severe disease in the offspring of farm animals across Europe.

Riboswitching on RNA virus replication [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Positive-strand RNA viruses direct different virus-specific processes during their infection of host cells. Fundamental events such as viral RNA genome replication are controlled by viral regulatory RNA elements (REs). Here, we have investigated the possibility of specifically modulating the action of a viral RE using RNA aptamer technology.

A hepatitis C virus cis-acting replication element forms a long-range RNA-RNA interaction with upstream RNA sequences in NS5B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The genome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) contains cis-acting replication elements (CREs) comprised of RNA stem-loop structures located in both the 5' and 3' non-coding regions (NCR), and in the NS5B coding sequence.
