Abstract
The purpose of this study is to characterize an NP mutant, Npbd3, designed to disrupt interaction with viral RdRP. NPbd3 is defective for viral mRNA transcription and viral RNA replication. We aim to identify any NP interaction that are altered in the presence of NPbd3 in order to identify potential antiviral targets.
