The structure of the influenza A virus nucleoprotein has proved elusive. But now its crystal structure has been determined, to reveal a crescent-shaped molecule containing connected head and body regions with a groove in between to accommodate the viral RNA. Now the contact points between this protein and other parts of the virus particle...
