Molecular architecture of bacteriophage T7 capsid

To determine the capsid structure of bacteriophage T7, the authors have investigated polycapsids, tubular capsid-related structures isolated from lysates of the T7 mutant am16. The structure of the normal T7 capsid is an orthodox icosahedron of triangulation class T = 7, composed of 60 hexamers and...

Zusammenfassung:To determine the capsid structure of bacteriophage T7, the authors have investigated polycapsids, tubular capsid-related structures isolated from lysates of the T7 mutant am16. The structure of the normal T7 capsid is an orthodox icosahedron of triangulation class T = 7, composed of 60 hexamers and 12 pentamers.
