Abstract

RNA G-quadruplexes are dynamically regulated during stress and infection. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Schult et al.1 demonstrate that an RNA G-quadruplex conserved across orthoflaviviruses binds hnRNPH1 to mitigate the host stress response, highlighting the potential of this dynamic proviral RNA structure as a pan-flaviviral target.
