Intrinsically-disordered N-termini in human parechovirus 1 capsid proteins bind encapsidated RNA

Abstract Human parechoviruses (HPeV) are picornaviruses with a highly-ordered RNA genome contained within icosahedrally-symmetric capsids. Ordered RNA structures have recently been shown to interact with capsid proteins VP1 and VP3 and facilitate virus assembly in HPeV1. Using an assay that combines...
