Genetic elements regulating packaging of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus genome
16 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
The genome of Bunyamwera virus (BUN; family Bunyaviridae, genus Orthobunyavirus) comprises three segments of negative-sense, single-stranded RNA. The RNA segments are encapsidated by the viral nucleocapsid (N) protein and form panhandle-like structures through interaction of complementary sequences at their 5' and 3' termini. Transcription and replication of a BUN genome analogue (minireplicon), comprising the...
