Structures of respiratory syncytial virus nucleocapsid protein from two crystal forms: Details of potential packing interactions in the native helical form

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a frequent cause of respiratory illness in infants, but there is currently no vaccine nor effective drug treatment against this virus. The RSV RNA genome is encapsidated and protected by a nucleocapsid protein; this RNA-nucleocapsid complex serves as a template f...
