Replication of alphaviruses requires a pseudoknot that involves the polyA tail
2022-06-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Alphaviruses, such as Sindbis virus and Chikungunya virus, are RNA viruses with a positive sense single-stranded RNA genome that infect various vertebrates including humans. A conserved sequence element (CSE) of ∼19 nucleotides (nts) in the 3’ non-coding region is important for replication. Despite extensive mutational analysis of the CSE no comprehensive model of this element exists to date. Her...
