text: The predicted consensus secondary structure for the N-terminus of group C virus L proteins has an arrangement of a1-3b1b2a4b3b4a5b5a6a7, which is nearly identical to that from the crystal structure for LC183, N-terminal 183 amino acid fragment of La Crosse virus (LACV; genus Orthobunyavirus) [24], except that a short motif, IVVDIN / ITLNVT for LACV / CARV was predicted to form b5 but not revealed in the LC183 crystal structure.
