A RNA Dodecahedral Cage Inside a Human Virus Plays a Dual Biological Role in Virion Assembly and Genome Release Control
25 Dec 2024
Abstract excerpt
• A RNA dodecahedral cage inside a human virus is a multifunctional structural element. • Interactions between the viral capsid and RNA duplexes promote virus infection. • Structurally discrete subsets of capsid-RNA interactions control different processes. • A subset of RNA-duplex interactions facilitates virion assembly. • A second subset of RNA-duplex interactions modulates viral RNA genome uncoating. Human...
