    Snippet: Also, it is legitimate to question the specificity of single copy MTases in Nidovirales, such as mammalian Tobaniviridae or Roniviridae (Fig. 2 ). Since they do not have any obvious RNA-cap N7-guanine MTase, how is RNA-cap methylation achieved, if any? Are their nsp16-like enzymes of broad or promiscuous specificity?.....
