Structural analysis of 3’UTRs in insect flaviviruses reveals novel determinant of sfRNA biogenesis and provides new insights into flavivirus evolution
2021-06-24
Abstract excerpt
Insect-specific flaviviruses (ISFs) circulate in nature due to vertical transmission in mosquitoes and do not infect vertebrates. ISFs include two distinct lineages – classical ISFs (cISFs) that evolved independently and dual host associated ISFs (dISFs) that are proposed to diverge from mosquito-borne flaviviruses (MBFs). Compared to pathogenic flaviviruses, ISFs are relatively poorly studied, and their molecular...
