The relative importances of protein-protein and RNA-protein interactions in stabilizing the architecture of brome mosaic virus particles are discussed in the light of the following experimental evidence: (a) disassembly pathways of the virus particles, (b) reassembly of the virus and self-association capacity of the protein moiety, and (c) the role of divalent cations in virus stabilization, and their relevance to localization of the RNA in the virus particles. Evidence is given that the capsid of BMV is primarily stabilized by hydrophobic bonds at low pH, but not around and above neutrality where RNA-protein electrostatic interactions are essential to the integrity of the virus particles. A model is proposed for the structure of BMV in the different configurational states.
