The conserved N-terminal region of Sendai virus nucleocapsid protein NP is required for nucleocapsid assembly.
Sendai virus nucleocapsid protein NP synthesized in the absence of other viral components assembled into nucleocapsid-like particles. They were identical in density and morphology to authentic nucleocapsids but were smaller in size. The reduction in size was probably due to the fact that they contained RNA only 0.5 to 2 kb in length. Nucleocapsid assembly requires NP-NP and NP-RNA interactions....
متن کاملHuman parainfluenza virus type 2 L protein regions required for interaction with other viral proteins and mRNA capping.
The large RNA polymerase (L) protein of human parainfluenza virus type 2 (hPIV2) binds the nucleocapsid, phosphoprotein, and V protein, as well as itself, and these interactions are essential for transcription and replication of the viral RNA genome. Although all of these interactions were found to be mediated through the domains within the N terminus of L, the C terminus of the L protein was a...
متن کاملFunctional domains within the human immunodeficiency virus type 2 envelope protein required to enhance virus production.
Primate lentiviruses code for a protein that stimulates virus production. In human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the activity is provided by the accessory protein, Vpu, while in HIV-2 and simian immunodeficiency virus it is a property of the envelope (Env) glycoprotein. Using a group of diverse retroviruses and cell types, we have confirmed the functional equivalence of the two protein...
متن کاملNucleocapsid incorporation into parainfluenza virus is regulated by specific interaction with matrix protein.
The paramyxovirus nucleoproteins (NPs) encapsidate the genomic RNA into nucleocapsids, which are then incorporated into virus particles. We determined the protein-protein interaction between NP molecules and the molecular mechanism required for incorporating nucleocapsids into virions in two closely related viruses, human parainfluenza virus type 1 (hPIV1) and Sendai virus (SV). Expression of N...
متن کاملComplete sequence of the major nucleocapsid protein gene of human parainfluenza type 3 virus: comparison with other negative strand viruses.
The sequence of the major nucleocapsid protein (NP) mRNA and its encoded protein were deduced by sequencing a cDNA clone representing the complete mRNA. The cDNA sequence was confirmed by dideoxynucleotide sequencing of purified viral genomic RNA by primer extension using synthetic oligonucleotides. The NP mRNA contains 1,641 nucleotides exclusive of poly(A) and encodes an NP protein of 515 ami...
