The impact of non-synonymous mutations on miRNA binding sites within the SARS-CoV-2 NSP3 and NSP4 genes
7 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
Non-synonymous mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike region affect cell entry, tropism, and immune evasion, while frequent synonymous mutations may modify viral fitness. Host microRNAs, a type of non-coding RNA, play a crucial role in the viral life cycle, influencing viral replication and the host immune response directly or indirectly. Recently, we identified ten miRNAs with a high complementary capacity to target...
