Flaviviridae Replication Organelles: Oh, What a Tangled Web We Weave
6 Nov 2015
Abstract excerpt
Replication of positive-strand RNA viruses occurs in tight association with reorganized host cell membranes. In a concerted fashion, viral and cellular factors generate distinct organelle-like structures, designated viral replication factories. These virus-induced compartments promote highly efficient genome replication, allow spatiotemporal coordination of the different steps of the viral replication cycle, and...
