A hidden gene in astroviruses encodes a viroporin
Astroviruses are common human pathogens and their genomes contain three known protein-coding genes. Here, Lulla et al. report a fourth, previously overlooked gene encoding protein XP which has a viroporin-like activity that is important for efficient production and/or release of virus particles.
