Tapwovirus (taxid:2501974)

VIRION

image

Unknown, discovered using viral metagenomics. Presumably enveloped.

GENOME

image

Negative-stranded RNA linear and segmented genome, containing two segments of about 6kb abd 4.7kb in size. Encodes for five proteins.

GENE EXPRESSION

The viral RNA dependent RNA polymerase binds the encapsidated genome at the leader region, then sequentially transcribes each genes by recognizing start and stop signals flanking viral genes.

ENZYMES

REPLICATION

CYTOPLASM

  1. Attachement of the viral glycoproteins to host receptors.
  2. Fusion of virus membrane with the vesicle membrane.
  3. Sequential transcription.
  4. Replication .
  5. Cytoplasmic ribo-nucleocapsids buds out of the cell,releasing new virions.
These structures were created with the help of Colabfold by Jason Nomburg, Nathan Price and Jennifer Doudna (ModelArchive).
