'''The structure of immature Yellow Fever virus particle'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
Structures of prM-containing dengue and yellow fever virus particles were, determined to 16 and 25 A resolution, respectively, by cryoelectron, microscopy and image reconstruction techniques. The closely similar, structures show 60 icosahedrally organized trimeric spikes on the particle, surface. Each spike consists of three prM:E heterodimers, where E is an, envelope glycoprotein and prM is the precursor to the membrane protein M., The pre-peptide components of the prM proteins in each spike cover the, fusion peptides at the distal ends of the E glycoproteins in a manner, similar to the organization of the glycoproteins in the alphavirus spikes., Each heterodimer is associated with an E and a prM transmembrane density., These transmembrane densities represent either an EE or prMprM, antiparallel coiled coil by which each protein spans the membrane twice, leaving the C-terminus of each protein on the exterior of the viral, membrane, consistent with the predicted membrane-spanning domains of the, unprocessed polyprotein.
