abstract：:The poly(rC)-binding protein PCBP2 has multiple functions in post-transcriptional control of host and viral gene expression. Since it interacts with picornaviral RNA structures, it was proposed that PCBP2 regulates viral genome translation and replication. The hepatitis A virus (HAV), an atypical picornavirus, contain...
