This study shows how phosphorylation tuning affects Nhp6A's conformational equilibria and DNA binding modes, revealing a conserved mechanism for chromatin regulation.

This study shows a specific SARS-CoV-2 genomic RNA region forms compact granular structures autonomously without the N protein, and the N protein melts these structures, suggesting it acts as an RNA chaperone.

This study investigates how SARS-CoV-2 N protein interacts with different RNA structures, showing it can bind multiple RNA fragments per dimer and may help fold viral RNA into RNP granules.
