    Structure of orthoreovirus RNA chaperone σNS, a component of viral replication factories

    The mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus) σNS protein is required for formation of replication compartments that support viral genome replication and capsid assembly. Despite its functional importance, a mechanis...

    Paired immunoglobulin-like receptor B is an entry receptor for mammalian orthoreovirus

    Mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus) infects most mammals and is associated with celiac disease in humans. In mice, reovirus infects the intestine and disseminates systemically to cause serotype-specific pattern...
