Significant differences in nucleocapsid morphology within the Paramyxoviridae
1 Aug 2002
Abstract excerpt
Nucleocapsid (N) proteins from representative viruses of three genera within the Paramyxoviridae were expressed in insect cells using recombinant baculoviruses. RNA-containing structures, which appear morphologically identical to viral nucleocapsids, were isolated and subsequently imaged under a transmission electron microscope. Analysis of these images revealed marked differences in nucleocapsid morphology among...
