FIGURE 1.
Structural overview of the SARS-CoV-2 N protein. (A) Schematic diagram of the modular structure of the N protein of SARS-CoV-2. The N-arm, the Ser/Arg (SR)-rich central LKR, and Ctail, and the N-terminal domain (NTD) and C-terminal domain (CTD)–the three intrinsically disordered regions–are depicted. (B) SARS-CoV-2 N-NTD (PDB ID: 7CDZ) and N-CTD (PDB ID: 7DE1) electrostatic surfaces (PDB ID 7CEO). Blue represents a positively charge potential, and red represents a negative one. PyMOL was utilized to prepare all the structural figures.
