Structural Lability in Stem–Loop 1 Drives a 5′ UTR–3′ UTR Interaction in Coronavirus Replication

The leader RNA of the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of coronaviral genomes contains two stem–loop structures denoted SL1 and SL2. Herein, we show that SL1 is functionally and structurally bipartite. While the upper region of SL1 is required to be paired, we observe strong genetic selection against vi...
