  2. Double-stranded RNA viruses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-stranded_RNA_viruses

    Double-stranded RNA viruses include the rotaviruses, known globally as a common cause of gastroenteritis in young children, and bluetongue virus, an economically significant pathogen of cattle and sheep. The family Reoviridae is the largest and most diverse dsRNA virus family in terms of host range. [2]

  3. Double-stranded RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-stranded_RNA

    Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is RNA with two complementary strands found in cells. It is similar to DNA but with the replacement of thymine by uracil and the adding of one oxygen atom. [ 1 ] Despite the structural similarities, much less is known about dsRNA.

  4. Sedoreoviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedoreoviridae

    Sedoreoviridae (formerly Reoviridae) is a family of double-stranded RNA viruses. Member viruses have a wide host range, including vertebrates, invertebrates, plants, protists and fungi. [1] They lack lipid envelopes and package their segmented genome within multi-layered capsids.

  5. RNA virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_virus

    Taxonomy and replication strategies of different types of RNA viruses. An RNA virus is a virus characterized by a ribonucleic acid based genome. [1] The genome can be single-stranded RNA or double-stranded (dsRNA). [2]

  6. Rotavirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotavirus

    The eleven dsRNA strands remain within the protection of the two protein shells and the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase creates mRNA transcripts of the double-stranded viral genome. By remaining in the core, the viral RNA evades innate host immune responses including RNA interference that are triggered by the presence of double-stranded RNA ...

  7. RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA

    Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is RNA with two complementary strands, similar to the DNA found in all cells, but with the replacement of thymine by uracil and the adding of one oxygen atom. dsRNA forms the genetic material of some viruses (double-stranded RNA viruses). Double-stranded RNA, such as viral RNA or siRNA, can trigger RNA interference ...

  8. Mycovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycovirus

    The majority of mycoviruses have double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) genomes and isometric particles, but approximately 30% have positive-sense, single-stranded RNA (+ssRNA) genomes. [1] [2] However, negative single-stranded RNA viruses and single-stranded DNA viruses have also been described.

  9. Orthornavirae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthornavirae

    Genome type and replication cycle of different RNA viruses. RNA viruses in Orthornavirae typically do not encode many proteins, but most positive-sense, single-stranded (+ssRNA) viruses and some double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) viruses encode a major capsid protein that has a single jelly roll fold, so named because the folded structure of the protein contains a structure that resembles a jelly ...
