摘 要:The nucleoprotein (N) of non-segmented negative-sense RNA viruses, such as Measles,Ebola and Newcastle disease viruses (NDV), enwrap viral genomic RNAs and assemble them into helical filaments which serve as the template for replication and transcription. Using cryo-Electron Microscopy, we identified and resolved NDV N forming a 4.8?resolution clam-shaped structure with two single-turn spirals packing in a back-to-back mode, which have not been reported before.
