Comprehensive survey of conserved RNA secondary structures in full-genome alignment of Hepatitis C virus
Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a plus-stranded RNA virus that often chronically infects liver hepatocytes and causes liver cirrhosis and cancer. These viruses replicate their genomes employing error-prone replicases. Thereby, they routinely generate a large ‘cloud’ of RNA genomes (quasispecies)...
