Unbranched rod-like RNA is required for RNA editing of hepatitis delta virus genotype 2 and genotype 4
RNA editing of the hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is essential for generating the large delta antigen, which is crucial for virion assembly. In HDV genotype 1 (HDV-1), editing occurs within the context of the unbranched rod-like structure characteristic of HDV RNA, while RNA editing in HDV-3 requires a...
