Crystal structure of Zika virus NS5 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase

The Zika virus outbreak is a global health threat and there is an urgent need for drugs against the virus. Here the authors present the structure of the RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase domain from Zika non-structural protein 5, which is a template for the design of non-nucleoside polymerase inhibitors.
