Crystal Structure of the Measles Virus Nucleoprotein Core in Complex with an N-Terminal Region of Phosphoprotein.
UNLABELLED The enveloped negative-stranded RNA virus measles virus (MeV) is an important human pathogen. The nucleoprotein (N(0)) assembles with the viral RNA into helical ribonucleocapsids (NC) which are, in turn, coated by a helical layer of the matrix protein. The viral polymerase complex uses the NC as its template. The N(0) assembly onto the NC and the activity of the polymerase are regula...
متن کاملDetection of measles virus nucleoprotein mRNA in autopsied brain tissues.
By means of RT-PCR, a portion of measles virus (MV) mRNA encoding nucleoprotein (NP) could be detected in 11 (18%) of 61 brain tissue samples obtained from administrative autopsy cases, who apparently had not suffered from subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE)-like central nervous system disorders. Most of the brain-derived NP sequences showed significant asynonymous nucleotide substitutio...
متن کاملCharacterization of T cell epitopes in measles virus nucleoprotein.
T cell epitopes of the measles virus (MV) nucleoprotein were studied by synthesizing overlapping 20 aa peptides over the known sequence of the protein and analysing the proliferation responses of a panel of MV-specific T cell lines and clones against these peptides. T cell lines were established from eleven healthy controls and seven multiple sclerosis patients, all with a history of past MV in...
متن کاملAtomic Resolution Description of the Interaction between the Nucleoprotein and Phosphoprotein of Hendra Virus
Hendra virus (HeV) is a recently emerged severe human pathogen that belongs to the Henipavirus genus within the Paramyxoviridae family. The HeV genome is encapsidated by the nucleoprotein (N) within a helical nucleocapsid. Recruitment of the viral polymerase onto the nucleocapsid template relies on the interaction between the C-terminal domain, N(TAIL), of N and the C-terminal X domain, XD, of ...
متن کاملThe C-terminal domain of the measles virus nucleoprotein is intrinsically disordered and folds upon binding to the C-terminal moiety of the phosphoprotein.
The nucleoprotein of measles virus consists of an N-terminal moiety, N(CORE), resistant to proteolysis and a C-terminal moiety, N(TAIL), hypersensitive to proteolysis and not visible as a distinct domain by electron microscopy. We report the bacterial expression, purification, and characterization of measles virus N(TAIL). Using nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism, gel filtration, dy...
