RNPC3 and influenza: Assuming TiLV-RNPs adopts an anti-parallel superhelix like influenza, it is tempting to suggest that the circularised TiLV-NP pentamers and hexamers may correspond to the loop found at one extremity of the RNP or could, perhaps, correspond to a nascent RNP formed within the replication complex once the RNA product begins to bulge out [10,11].
