The genome polyprotein is a precursor molecule that is translated from a viral RNA and is subsequently cleaved into individual functional proteins. This strategy of genome expression is utilized by various positive-strand RNA viruses, including plant viruses and animal viruses [1]. The maturation process of viral polyproteins is crucial for viral replication, as it enables the synthesis of new viral genomes and the functionality of viral proteins [2]. For instance, the genome of Rubella virus encodes a polyprotein precursor, which is subsequently processed into nonstructural proteins that support viral replication [3]. Similarly, the genome of SARS-CoV-2, like other coronaviruses, encodes polyproteins that require processing into functional proteins [4].
The polyprotein is initially translated as a single large molecule, which is then processed by proteolytic cleavage into smaller, functional proteins [5]. This processing is essential for the regulation of viral replication and maturation [6]. The cleavages within the replicase polyproteins are carried out by the virus's own enzymes, highlighting the intricate mechanisms involved in polyprotein processing [7]. Moreover, the polyprotein processing is a critical step in the assembly of functional viral replication complexes, which regulate RNA synthesis in viruses such as Sindbis virus [8].
The polyprotein processing involves post-translational proteolytic cleavage, which is a mechanism utilized by potyviruses for genome expression [9]. Additionally, the hepatitis C virus genome encodes a precursor polyprotein that undergoes processing into functional proteins by both host and viral proteases [10]. This exemplifies the significance of polyprotein processing in the life cycle of diverse viruses.
