Correlated sequence signatures are present within the genomic 5′UTR RNA and NSP1 protein in coronaviruses
2 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
The 5'UTR part of coronavirus genomes plays key roles in the viral replication cycle and translation of viral mRNAs. The first 75-80 nt, also called the leader sequence, are identical for genomic mRNA and subgenomic mRNAs. Recently, it was shown that cooperative actions of a 5'UTR segment and the nonstructural protein NSP1 are essential for both the inhibition of host mRNAs and for specific translation of viral...
