prM residues involved in particle assembly and secretion on the prM/E crystal structure. (PDB: 3C6D, pr in green, E in grey, adapted from Li et al., [8]) A) Top view of prME spike showing prM residues I22 (red), T20 and K31 (yellow). B) Side view of prM showing I22, T20 and K31 on the same plane position on the top of the prM/E trimeric spike. C) Side view showing residues L72 (blue) and Y78 (magenta) facing the prM and E interface.
