Selective Packaging in Murine Coronavirus Promotes Virulence by Limiting Type I Interferon Responses

ABSTRACT Selective packaging is a mechanism used by multiple virus families to specifically incorporate genomic RNA (gRNA) into virions and exclude other types of RNA. Lineage A betacoronaviruses incorporate a 95-bp stem-loop structure, the packaging signal (PS), into the nsp15 locus of ORF1b that i...
