A divergent Articulavirus in an Australian gecko identified using meta-transcriptomics and protein structure comparisons

Abstract
The discovery of highly divergent RNA viruses is compromised by their limited sequence similarity to known viruses. Evolutionary information obtained from protein structural modelling offers a powerful approach to detect distantly related viruses based on the conservation of tertiary structures in key proteins such as the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). We utilised a template-based approach for protein structure prediction from amino...
