UniProtKB description: Encapsidates the genome in a ratio of one N per nine ribonucleotides, protecting it from nucleases. The encapsidated genomic RNA is termed the NC and serves as template for transcription and replication. The nucleocapsid is bullet-shaped with the tip containing 8 turns of a conical spiral before reaching the helical cylindrical trunk. Nucleocapsid assembly is concomitant with replication, therefore viral replication depends on the intracellular concentration of free N, termed N(0). All replicative products are resistant to nucleases.
