Relaxing the restricted structural dynamics in the human hepatitis B virus RNA encapsidation signal enables replication initiation in vitro

Hepadnaviruses, including hepatitis B virus (HBV) as a major human pathogen, replicate their tiny 3 kb DNA genomes by capsid-internal protein-primed reverse transcription of a pregenomic (pg) RNA. Initiation requires productive binding of the viral polymerase, P protein, to a 5´ proximal bipartite s...
