New perspectives for anti-viral therapy: The regulatory roles of genomic RNA in virus assembly, infection and evolution. (360G-Wellcome-110145_Z_15_Z)
We will exploit our discovery of fundamental mechanisms regulating assembly in important single-stranded RNA viruses based on multiple, dispersed RNA-protein interactions (packaging signals, PSs) to: 1. Determine how genomic RNAs play regulatory roles in the mechanisms of virus assembly, maturation and host cell invasion. 2. Determine which viral and host components are needed to develop a quantitative systems understanding of assembly in vivo. 3. Analyse how viruses may evade anti-viral strategies targeting PS functions, triggering the occurrence of mutant strains. This paves the way for novel forms of anti-viral intervention.
