This study shows that cardiovirus L protein disrupts nucleocytoplasmic trafficking, leading to PKR inhibition by sequestering PKR in nucleoli and releasing nuclear RNA-binding proteins into the cytosol.

This study identifies conserved phosphorylatable residues in motif G of viral RdRps that inhibit polymerase activity and suggests they as targets for antiviral drugs.

This paper identifies a second SLiM in cardiovirus L proteins that enables RSK kinases to target the nuclear pore complex via RAE1 interaction.
