What a twist: structural biology of the SARS-CoV-2 helicase nsp13
2023-10-02
Abstract excerpt
SARS-CoV-2 nsp13 is a multifunctional helicase from helicase superfamily 1B. It unwinds the viral RNA genome for replication and is thought to play a role in 5’ mRNA capping to produce mature mRNA using its triphosphatase activity. The sequence and structure are highly conserved in nidovirales and the protein is essential to the viral infection cycle, acting as a standalone enzyme and in conjunction with other SAR...
