Aberrant host mRNA partitioning in Ebola virus condensates driven by RNA folding perpetuates species-dependent interferon response.
bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology · 2026
RNA viruses form membraneless condensates in host cells to drive replication, but whether these compartments also regulate host RNAs remains unclear. Using MERFISH-based subcellular transcriptomics, we quantified cellular mRNA recruitment into Ebola virus condensates under basal and IFN-stimulated states. We …
