Anti-Measles nucleoprotein antibody [2D7],Abcam,AB9882

Target data Forms the helical nucleocapsid (NC) in a ratio of 1 N per 6 ribonucleotides, protecting the genome from nucleases (By similarity). The nucleocapsid (NC) has a helical structure with either 12.35 or 11.64 N per turn, approximately 20 nm in diameter, with a hollow central cavity approximately 5 nm in diameter (By similarity). The encapsidated genomic RNA serves as template for transcription and replication; encapsidation by N is coupled to RNA synthesis (By similarity). Forms the encapsidation complex with the phosphoprotein protein P (By similarity). Before encapsidation, the newly synthesized free N protein, so-called N0, is chaperoned by P (By similarity). Participates, together with P, in the formation of viral factories (viroplasms), which are large inclusions in the host cytoplasm where replication takes place (By similarity). N is released in the blood following lysis of measles infected cells, it interacts then with human FCGR2B on immune cells, inducing apoptosis and blocking inflammatory immune response (By similarity).
