Antibody Screening Results for Anti-Nucleocapsid Antibodies Towards the Development of a SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein Antigen Detecting Lateral Flow Assay [PDF]
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created an urgent demand for large numbers of inexpensive, accurate, rapid, point-of-care diagnostic tests. Analyte-based assays are suitably inexpensive and can be rapidly mass-produced, but for sufficiently accurate ...

Identification of (20R)-protopanaxadiol from Panax ginseng as a novel anti-SARS-CoV-2 compound. [PDF]
We established a noninfectious BAC‐based SARS‐CoV‐2 replicon that enables antiviral screening under BSL‐2 conditions. Using this platform, we screened 373 food‐derived compounds and identified (20R)‐protopanaxadiol from Panax ginseng as a novel inhibitor of SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA replication, highlighting the value of safe replicon systems for antiviral ...

SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Assembly Inhibitors: Repurposing Antiviral and Antimicrobial Drugs Targeting Nucleocapsid-RNA Interaction [PDF]
SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has become a serious concern due to high transmission of this virus and unavailability of any definitive drugs yet in clinics. While novel antivirals are under investigation stage, scientists are also rigorously trying to use drug ...

The SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (N) binds a single-stranded viral RNA genome to form a helical ribonucleoprotein complex that is packaged into virion particles. N is relatively conserved among coronaviruses and consists of the N-terminal domain (NTD)

Specific Recognition of a Stem-Loop RNA Structure by the Alphavirus Capsid Protein
Alphaviruses are small enveloped viruses with positive-sense RNA genomes. During infection, the alphavirus capsid protein (Cp) selectively packages and assembles with the viral genomic RNA to form the nucleocapsid core, a process critical to the ...

Functional analysis of the orthobunyavirus nucleocapsid (N) protein [PDF]
Bunyamwera virus (BUNV) is the prototype of the family Bunyaviridae. It has a tripartite genome consisting of negative sense RNA segments called large (L), medium (M) and small (S). The S segment encodes the nucleocapsid protein (N) of 233 amino acids.

Time-Resolved Fluorescence Investigation of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Nucleocapsid Protein: Influence of the Binding of Nucleic Acids [PDF]
Depending on the HIV-1 isolate, MN or BH10, the nucleocapsid protein, NCp7, corresponds to a 55- or 71-amino acid length product, respectively. The MN NCp7 contains a single Trp residue at position 37 in the distal zinc finger motif, and the BH10 NCp7 ...
