Evolutionary analysis of V protein pseudogenization in an RNA editing-deficient paramyxovirus
2026-04-08
Abstract excerpt
In most paramyxoviruses, RNA editing in the P gene enables expression of the V protein. Human parainfluenza virus type 1 (HPIV-1) differs from most paramyxoviruses in that it lacks RNA editing and does not produce a functional V protein, although its genome retains sequences corresponding to the ancestral V reading frame. Here, we analyzed all HPIV-1 genome sequences available in the NCBI GenBank database to asses...
