摘要

Increasing evidence suggests that mutations in the nucleocapsid (N) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may enhance viral replication by modulating the assembly process. However, the mechanisms governing the selective packaging of viral genomic RNA by the N protein, along with the assembly and budding processes, remain poorly understood. Utilizing a virus-like particles (VLPs) system, we have identified that the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the N protein is essential for its interaction with the membrane (M) protein during budding, crucial for binding and packaging genomic RNA. Notably, the isolated CTD lacks M protein interaction capacity and budding ability. Yet, upon fusion ... More
