Structural insights into Rift Valley fever virus replication machinery

Abstract: Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) belongs to the order Bunyavirales and is the type species of genus Phlebovirus, which accounts for over 50% of family Phenuiviridae species. RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (L protein) is responsible for facilitating the replication and transcription of the virus. We report two cryo-EM RVFV L protein structures at 3.6 Å and 3.8 Å resolution in the presence and absence of RNA, respectively. In this first L protein structure of genus Phlebovirus, viral RNA induces considerable conform… Show more

“…L protein is the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) involved in the transcription and replication processes as well as cap-snatching mechanism [59,60]. D157G is located in the endonuclease domain while D407G and G411S are part of the Arch domain, within PA-C like domain [61]. Finally, T2033A is located at the C terminal part of the RdRp within the PB-2 like domain [60].…”
