Sequential packaging of RNA genomic segments during the assembly of Bluetongue virus
26 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
Bluetongue virus (BTV), a member of the Orbivirus genus within the Reoviridae family, has a genome of 10 double-stranded RNA segments, with three distinct size classes. Although the packaging of the viral genome is evidently highly specific such that every virus particle contains a set of 10 RNA segments, the order and mechanism of packaging are not understood. In this study we have combined the use of a...
