IP6 is dispensable for HTLV-1 immature particle assembly and proper immature lattice formation.
Quoted textsource-backed
Intriguingly, inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) is dispensable for HTLV-1 immature particle assembly and proper immature lattice formation.
Cryo-ET revealed heterogeneity in HTLV-1 immature particles, including varying lattice curvatures and varying distances from the CA layer to the membrane.
Quoted textsource-backed
Further analysis by cryo-ET reveals clear heterogeneity, notably the varying lattice curvatures and the varying distances from the CA layer to the membrane.
The HTLV-1 immature CA lattice is stabilized through a trimeric NTD inter-hexamer interface and a dimeric CTD inter-hexamer interface.
Quoted textsource-backed
Our reconstruction reveals that the lattice is stabilized through a trimeric NTD inter-hexamer interface and a dimeric CTD inter-hexamer interface.
Single particle analysis resolved the HTLV-1 immature CA lattice to 3.4 Å resolution.
