Structure of Nora virus at 2.7 Å resolution and implications for receptor binding, capsid stability and taxonomy.
Scientific reports 20201112 1
Nora virus, a virus of Drosophila, encapsidates one of the largest single-stranded RNA virus genomes known. Its taxonomic affinity is uncertain as it has a picornavirus-like cassette of enzymes for virus replication, but the capsid structure was at the time for genome publication unknown. By solving the structure of the virus, and through sequence comparison, we clear up this taxonomic ambiguity in the invertebrate RNA virosphere. Despite the lack of detectable similarity in the amino acid seque ...[more]
