Rotavirus protein NSP3 (NS34) is bound to the 3′ end consensus sequence of viral mRNAs in infected cells.Four nucleotides are the minimal requirement for RNA recognition by rotavirus non-structural protein NSP3: using short oligoribonucleotides it was established that the minimal RNA sequence required for binding of NSP3A is GACC.Rotavirus RNA-binding protein NSP3 interacts with eIF4GI and evicts the poly(A)-binding protein from eIF4F.
