Outline Opimization of viral structure stability Kinetics of viral self-assembly

Icosahedral viruses The number of capsid proteins is 60T, T=1, 3, 4, 7…… CCMV (T=3) P. van der Schoot and R. Bruinsma, Phys. Rev. E 71, (2005). Self-assembly from a solution of capsid proteins and ss RNA. The absolute value of ss RNA charges is approximately twice larger than the total capsid charge.

For many viruses the capsid protein has long N- terminal tail, which carriers all positive charge. capsid protein ss RNA N-terminal tail See also: V. A. Belyi and M. Muthukumar, PNAS 103, (2006)

N-terminal tail overcharged by ss RNA ( with total length S ) Free energy: At ss RNA wraps around the N-terminal tail Optimize with respect to

Viruses are most stable when the total contour length of ss RNA is close to the total length of the tails. ss RNA N-terminal tail At both polymers are stretched

Very long tails

Without antenna: For a typical T=3 virus ss RNA ~ 3000 bases ~ 2100 nm radius of antenna R ~ 60 nm size of capsid protein r ~ 4 nm number of proteins M = 60T =180 With antenna: The ss RNA speeds up the self-assembly when the capsid proteins are at excess

The ss RNA tail slows down the self-assembly when the ss RNA molecules are at excess Kinetic trap

Assembly time as a function of ratio, is the assembly time without the antenna effect. excess of RNA stoichiometry excess of protein

Assembly from short RNA Excess of capsid proteins or of ss RNA plays NO role! CF can grow only via CF-CF collisions and merging. Typical size of fragment grows with time:

Summary Viruses are most stable when the total contour length of ss RNA is close to the total length of the tails. When capsid proteins are at excess, the ss RNA antenna speeds up self-assembly. When ss RNA molecules are at excess, the ss RNA tail slows down self-assembly.
