Chimeric replication defects highlight strict 3CD-P2/P3 compatibility needs; leaves open whether engineering can overcome genus barriers.
There are essential interactions between 3CD and other viral P2 or P3 protein products required for efficient RNA replication that are not fully achieved between proteins from different members of the same virus genus.
Bell et al. (1999) studied this question.
