these data lead to the suggestion that the disassembly and assembly of alphavirus cores might be regulated by a process which could be called receptor-mediated core disassembly , in which acceptors exist for the protein components of viral nucleoproteins in uninfected cells which early in infection bind these proteins and thereby lead to disassembly of these complexes , and which later on have to be saturated with newly synthesized protein before efficient assembly of nucleoproteins can occur , and that the large ribosomal subunit functions as such a receptor during alphavirus replication .
