Packaging of Genomic RNA in Positive-Sense Single-Stranded RNA Viruses: A Complex Story

Packaging of Genomic RNA in Positive-Sense Single-Stranded RNA Viruses: A Complex Story

The packaging of genomic RNA in positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses is a key part of the viral infectious cycle, yet this step is not fully understood. Unlike double-stranded DNA and RNA viruses, this process is coupled with nucleocapsid assembly. The specificity of RNA packaging depends on m...
