Independent evolution of tetraloop in enterovirus oriL replicative element and its putative binding partners in virus protein 3C

Background Enteroviruses are small non-enveloped viruses with a (+) ssRNA genome with one open reading frame. Enterovirus protein 3C (or 3CD for some species) binds the replicative element oriL to initiate replication. The replication of enteroviruses features a low-fidelity process, which allows th...
