RNA binding properties of poliovirus subviral particles.

Abstract excerpt

The mechanism of encapsidation of the RNA genome of poliovirus and other picornaviruses is unknown. To test whether any of the putative assembly intermediates of poliovirus could interact directly with the poliovirus RNA genome, poliovirus RNA was attached to magnetic streptavidin beads and incubated with partially purified extracts containing 35S-labeled 14S pentamer and 75S empty-capsid subviral particles from...
