Viral RNA Is a Hub for Critical Host-Virus Interactions

Subcell Biochem. 2023;106:365-385. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-40086-5_13.ABSTRACTRNA is a central molecule in the life cycle of viruses, acting not only as messenger (m)RNA but also as a genome. Given these critical roles, it is not surprising that viral RNA is a hub for host-virus interactions. However, the interactome of viral RNAs remains largely unknown. This chapter discusses the importance of cellular RNA-binding proteins in virus infection and the emergent approaches developed to uncover and characterise them.PMID:38159234 | DOI:10.1007/978-3-031-40086-5_13
