Structure and assembly of Borna disease virus 1 nucleoprotein-RNA complexes www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.05.26.654368v1 #cryoEM

Preprint posted:

We report diverse nucleoprotein complex structures, with and without RNA, from Borna disease virus 1, filling a structural gap in the order Mononegavirales.

Further details after peer review.

Collaborative work with Hirai, Horie, et al.

Bacterial flagellar motor in clockwise orientation, bound to CheY

Announced: The PDB Molecule of the Month for December is the flagellar motor! An informative article paired with a beautiful artwork by Dr. David Goodsell. pdb101.rcsb.org/motm/300

This is my favorite Molecule of the Month!

My half-hearted attempt to start a structural virology starter pack. Could be useful for conference organisation in the future! 😀

Been thinking about creating a collection of good protein structure figures, as inspiration for my own work.
