Abstract excerpt
The nucleocapsid protein NCp7 of HIV-1 is a single-stranded nucleic acid binding protein with several functions such as specific recognition, dimerization and packaging of viral RNA, tRNA annealing to viral RNA and protection against nucleases. Since some of these functions involve annealing and...
