Structure and assembly of double-headed Sendai virus nucleocapsids
22 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
Paramyxoviruses, including the mumps virus, measles virus, Nipah virus and Sendai virus (SeV), have non-segmented single-stranded negative-sense RNA genomes which are encapsidated by nucleoproteins into helical nucleocapsids. Here, we reported a double-headed SeV nucleocapsid assembled in a tail-to-tail manner, and resolved its helical stems and clam-shaped joint at the respective resolutions of 2.9 and 3.9 Å,...
