Where much of our current anti-SARS-CoV-2 arsenal is built around the virus’ spike (S) protein, many other proteins contribute to the viral life cycle as well. This includes the nucleocapsid (N ...

Researchers have been investigating the phosphorylation of the nucleocapsid protein. Study: Emergence of glycogen synthase kinase-3 interaction domain enhances phosphorylation of SARS-CoV-2 ...

The nucleocapsid protein is present inside SARS-CoV-2, but when a cell gets infected, the nucleocapsid protein is exposed to the cell surface. The nucleocapsid is among the most abundant protein ...

Clade 20A with nucleocapsid protein (N) mutations (R203K/G204R) were associated with higher incidences of hospitalization in the intensive care unit (ICU). Clade 19B was probably imported in late ...

and against nucleocapsid protein were measured with the use of a bead-based assay (Luminex). Antibodies were measured in 101 healthy controls 2 weeks after the first dose of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 ...

In a paper in the Journal of Virology, the Kobe University-led team is now the first to report that the ISG15 tag gets attached to a specific location on the virus's nucleocapsid protein ...

But the rapid antigen tests aren't actually looking for that spike protein. "[The tests] rely on detection of the nucleocapsid protein, which is the protein that is directly encapsulating the ...
