Replication of Picomavirus | Microbiology
In this article we will discuss about the replication of picomavirus. The virion RNA is infectious and serves as both the genome and viral messenger RNA. The internal ribosome entry site (IRES) allows direct translation of the polyprotein. The polyprotein is initially processed by the viral protease(s) into various precursor and mature proteins to yield the structural proteins, replicase, VPg, [...]
