Noncanonical P gene mRNA editing in Cedar virus generates a V-like protein that is required for efficient virion production
2026-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Highly pathogenic Hendra and Nipah viruses encode accessory P gene products (C, V and W) that antagonize innate immunity and contribute to pathogenicity. Cedar virus (CedV), an apathogenic bat-borne henipavirus, is presumed to lack P gene mRNA editing and therefore is unable to express V and W proteins. Here, we identify CedV peptides originating from a frameshifted P gene open reading frame and demonstrate a prev...
