Configuration of tobacco mosaic virus, RNA during virus assembly
Abstract
When TMV reassembles, the uncoated RNA is folded back along the growing rod, probably down the central hole. This surprising configuration is essential for rapid elongation--presumably supplying RNA to its site of incorporation while keeping the bulk of the free RNA out of the way.
