Viral N6-methyladenosine upregulates replication and pathogenesis of human respiratory syncytial virus
9 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract N 6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A) is the most prevalent internal modification of mRNAs in most eukaryotes. Here we show that RNAs of human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are modified by m 6 A within discreet regions and that these modifications enhance viral replication and pathogenesis. Knockdown of m 6 A methyltransferases decreases RSV replication and gene expression whereas knockdown of m 6 A...
