摘要
The NSP3 protein from rotaviruses recognizes a unique sequence at the 3' end of the rotaviral mRNA. By doing so, it promotes translation of viral proteins while repressing host protein synthesis. The structure of the NSP3 protein bound to a viral 3' end sequence reveals how this occurs and suggests how it might be possible to design a new class of antiviral drugs.
