The 3′-end (three prime end) of a strand is so named due to it terminating at the hydroxyl group of the third carbon in the sugar-ring, and is known as the tail end. The 3′-hydroxyl is necessary in the synthesis of new nucleic acid molecules as it is ligated (joined) to the 5′-phosphate of a separate nucleotide, allowing the formation of ...
The 3′-end (usually pronounced "three prime end") of a negative sense strand, and the 5′-end (usually pronounced "five prime end") of a positive sense strand, is called the left end, and the 5′-end of the negative sense strand, and the 3′-end of a positive sense strand, is called the right end.

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 ...
At the leader sequence, RdRp synthesizes a 5-'end (usually pronounced "five prime end") triphosphate-leader RNA and either, in the case of the subphylum Haploviricotina, caps the 5'-end or, in the case of the subphylum Polyploviricotina, snatches a cap from a host mRNA and attaches it to the viral mRNA so that the mRNA can be translated by the ...
Integrase accomplishes this using two reactions: 3-prime end processing, and the strand transfer reaction. In the first of these two reactions, the viral DNA is processed by the removal of two deoxynucleotides. In the strand transfer reaction, these processed 3-prime viral DNA ends are covalently bound to the host chromosomal DNA. [3]
A 3′ hydroxyl end of the left-hand (3′) terminus pairs with an internal base to prime initial DNA synthesis, resulting in the conversion of the ssDNA genome to its first duplex form. [ 1 ] [ 7 ] This is a monomeric double-stranded DNA molecule in which the two strands are covalently cross-linked to each other at the left-end by a single ...
The 5′ end is the part of the RNA molecule that is transcribed first, and the 3′ end is transcribed last. The 3′ end is also where the poly(A) tail is found on polyadenylated RNAs. [ 1 ] [ 9 ]
This is a rendering of cis-acting replication element inspired by an image of common cre structure found in Coronavirus from a review paper by Sola et al., 2015 [1]. Cis-acting replication elements (cre) bring together the 5′ and 3′ ends during replication of positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses (for example Picornavirus, Flavivirus, Coronavirus, Togaviruses, Hepatitis C virus) and ...
