Australian researchers report that a rabies virus protein changes shape and binds RNA to access liquid-like cellular compartments, offering a unifying explanation for how the virus exerts broad control with few genes. The work, published October 29, 2025, in Nature Communications, could inform future antivirals and vaccines, the team says.
