Highlights • Nidoviral RNA signals and protein co-factors control RdRp processivity and fidelity.• The RdRp directs a complex process of replication and subgenomic mRNA synthesis.• A unique N-terminal nucleotidyl transferase is connected to the nidovirus RdRp.• Nidoviral RNA synthesis depends on recruiting host cell factors and infrastructure.• The nidovirus RdRp is an important yet poorly explored antiviral drug target.
