Fig. 3. Analysis and illustration of subunits interactions.

Fig. 3

a Superposition of the in situ and crystal structures of a single N subunit. The in situ structure is colored in goldenrod except for the N-arm and C-loop, in red, while the crystal structure is colored in transparent gray except for the N-arm and C-loop, in blue. b Superposition of three N subunits extended from (a). Only the middle N subunits are aligned. Inset: NU is shown as surface contour. c Interactions between IM and N from the same asymmetric unit. d Interactions between IM and two OMs, one OM from the same asymmetric unit and another one from the adjacent asymmetric unit. e The subunit interaction network in the VSV nucleocapsid, in which IM plays a key mediating role. As labeled, subunits NU, IMU and OMU belong to the same asymmetric unit.
