Journal ArticleDOI

West Nile Virus 5′-Cap Structure Is Formed by Sequential Guanine N-7 and Ribose 2′-O Methylations by Nonstructural Protein 5

TL;DR: A critical role for the flavivirus MTase in viral reproduction is demonstrated and this domain is underscore this domain as a potential target for antiviral therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infectious cDNA Clone of the Epidemic West Nile Virus from New York City

TL;DR: The stable infectious cDNA clone of the epidemic lineage I strain of West Nile virus will provide a valuable experimental system to study the pathogenesis and replication of WNV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Analysis of Mosquito-Borne Flavivirus Conserved Sequence Elements within 3′ Untranslated Region of West Nile Virus by Use of a Reporting Replicon That Differentiates between Viral Translation and RNA Replication

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that genome cyclization through the 5′CS-CS1 interaction is essential for WNV RNA replication, whereas CS2, RCS2, CS3, and RCS3 facilitate, but are dispensable for, WNV replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Construction and characterization of subgenomic replicons of New York strain of West Nile virus.

TL;DR: It is suggested that WNV replicons may serve as a noncytopathic RNA virus expression system and should provide a valuable tool to study WNV replication.
