An evolutionarily conserved strategy for ribosome binding and host translation inhibition by β-coronavirus non-structural protein 1
Description
An important pathogenicity factor of SARS-CoV-2 and related coronaviruses is Non-structural protein 1 (Nsp1), which suppresses host gene expression and stunts antiviral signaling. SARS-CoV-2 Nsp1 binds the ribosome to inhibit translation through mRNA
