a, Nucleoprotein trimer viewed along the NCS three-fold axis, with three subunits shown in different colours. The rotation angles that relate the three subunits are marked. b, Side view of a nucleoprotein trimer, with the three subunits coloured as in a. c, Nucleoprotein secondary structure assignment (subunit B).
-Helices and
-strands are shown by rods and arrows, respectively.
-Strands with opposite signs form antiparallel
-strands. d, Nucleoprotein subunit B. The polypeptide is coloured continuously from blue to red. Residues preceding and succeeding disordered regions are marked and connected by dotted lines.
