Purified, lysed and micrococcal nuclease (MNase)-treated virus preparation and in vitro transcribed and radiolabeled genomic PUUV S segment were allowed to form RNA-protein complexes prior to UV cross-linking. The capability of structural proteins to bind RNA was analyzed by incubating purified, lysed and micrococcal nuclease (MNase)-treated virus preparations with radioactive PUUV S segment RNA in the case of PUUV ( The samples were immunoprecipitated with MAbs or PAbs specific to N, Gn or Gc and retained radioactivity on protein G beads after washing was measured by scintillation counting. The mapping indicated that the same peptides that were previously shown to interact with RNP and N protein (Hepojoki et al., 2010b) were capable of binding also nucleic acids (Fig. 5A ). ./cache/cord-332356-au7s3dmp.txt ./txt/cord-332356-au7s3dmp.txt
