Viral RNA Is a Hub for Critical Host-Virus Interactions.

RNA is a central molecule in the life cycle of viruses, acting not only as messenger (m)RNA but also as a genome. Given these critical roles, it is not surprising that viral RNA is a hub for host-virus interactions. However, the interactome of viral RNAs remains largely unknown. This chapter discusses the importance of cellular RNA-binding proteins in virus infection and the emergent approaches developed to uncover and characterise them.
