Detection methods targeting the positive‐ and negative‐sense RNA transcripts from plus‐stranded RNA viruses

Abstract excerpt

The largest group of viruses in the Baltimore classification system comprises viruses with a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome. Once the viral genome is released into the cytoplasm of a specific host cell following virus entry, it functions directly as an mRNA, and the virus-encoded proteins that are essential for genome replication are produced by the translation apparatus of the host cell. The...
