This study uncouples the effects of kaposin RNA and KapB protein from Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, showing they have distinct and opposing effects on cellular growth and inflammatory pathways.

The paper shows that Kaposin, a viral lncRNA, remodels nuclear speckles to enhance KSHV gene expression by interacting with repetitive elements.

This study investigates how KSHV maintains R-loops at replication origins by inhibiting RNaseH1, a key R-loop resolver, through RTA-mediated degradation.

This study compares the innate immune evasion abilities of nucleocapsid proteins from different human coronaviruses, finding significant functional and mechanistic differences.

This study shows that coronavirus M proteins disrupt the trans-Golgi network and inhibit anterograde protein trafficking in the secretory pathway, without affecting virus egress.

This paper identifies a conserved G4 structure in the HCV negative strand 3 UTR that is essential for efficient RNA synthesis by facilitating NS3 helicase recruitment and NS5B polymerase access.

This paper shows that a truncated SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein, N*M210, enhances virus fitness by inhibiting antiviral responses, including interferon induction and stress granule formation.
