Membranous Replication Factories Induced by Plus-Strand RNA Viruses
In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the membranous replication factories of members of plus-strand (+) RNA viruses. We discuss primarily the architecture of these complex membrane rearrangements, because this topic emerged in the last few years as electron tomography has become more widely available. A general denominator is that two "morphotypes" of membrane alterations ca...
متن کاملRepression and derepression of minus-strand synthesis in a plus-strand RNA virus replicon.
Plus-strand viral RNAs contain sequences and structural elements that allow cognate RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRp) to correctly initiate and transcribe asymmetric levels of plus and minus strands during RNA replication. cis-acting sequences involved in minus-strand synthesis, including promoters, enhancers, and, recently, transcriptional repressors (J. Pogany, M. R. Fabian, K. A. White, a...
متن کاملAnalysis of cis-acting sequences involved in plus-strand synthesis of a turnip crinkle virus-associated satellite RNA identifies a new carmovirus replication element.
Satellite RNA C (satC) is a 356-base subviral RNA associated with turnip crinkle virus (TCV). A 3'-proximal element (3'-UCCCAAAGUAU) located 11 bases from the 3' terminus of satC minus strands can function as an independent promoter in an in vitro RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) transcription system. Furthermore, in the absence of a 5'-proximal element, the 3'-proximal element is required f...
متن کاملMechanism of stimulation of plus-strand synthesis by an RNA replication enhancer in a tombusvirus.
Replication of RNA viruses is regulated by cis-acting RNA elements, including promoters, replication silencers, and replication enhancers (REN). To dissect the function of an REN element involved in plus-strand RNA synthesis, we developed an in vitro trans-replication assay for tombusviruses, which are small plus-strand RNA viruses. In this assay, two RNA strands were tethered together via shor...
متن کاملRNA elements required for RNA recombination function as replication enhancers in vitro and in vivo in a plus-strand RNA virus.
RNA replication requires cis-acting elements to recruit the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and facilitate de novo initiation of complementary strand synthesis. Hairpins that are hot spots for recombination in the genomic RNA of turnip crinkle virus (TCV) and satellite (sat)-RNA C, a parasitic RNA associated with TCV infections, stimulate RNA synthesis 10-fold from a downstream promot...
