[Two types of NP-NP associations in influenza virus-infected cells].
Two types of NP-NP associations are shown to form in the influenza virus-infected cells. Early NP synthesis gives rise to NP associations stabilized by relatively weak bonds. These structures are designed as NP multimers. The high protease- and heat-sensitivities allow NP-multimers to be regarded as incompletely folded proteins. Post-translationally, NP-multimers transform to compact NP associations (NP oligomers) that are relatively highly heat-and protease-resistant. The NP-multimers untransformed to the folded compact NP-oligomers accumulate in the cells and partially degraded. Whether both types of NP-NP associations may be of significance is under discussion.
