Conformational studies of highly dynamic viral replication complexes
Paramyxoviruses, including, measles and a number of dangerous human pathogens, are negative strand RNA viruses that express their own machinery for transcription and replication. Different interactions between the nucleoprotein (N) and the phosphoprotein (P) are essential for chaperoning and assembly of N on newly synthesized RNA genomes to form nucleocapsids (NCs), as well as for initiating replication and transcription. Both N and tetrameric P exhibit extensive conformational disorder, with very long, unfolded regions that host important post-translational modification sites as well as regulatory interactions with host and viral partners. The presence of this level of disorder, in viruses…
