Structural snapshots of La Crosse virus polymerase reveal the mechanisms underlying Peribunyaviridae replication and transcription
16 Feb 2022
Abstract excerpt
Segmented negative-strand RNA bunyaviruses encode a multi-functional polymerase that performs genome replication and transcription. Here, we establish conditions for in vitro activity of La Crosse virus polymerase and visualize its conformational dynamics by cryo-electron microscopy, unveiling the precise molecular mechanics underlying its essential activities. We find that replication initiation is coupled to...
