Crystal structure of a four-layer aggregate of engineered TMV CP implies the importance of terminal residues for oligomer assembly.

Crystal structures of the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) coat protein (CP) in its helical and disk conformations have previously been determined at the atomic level. For the helical structure, interactions of proteins and nucleic acids in the main chains were clearly observed; however, the conformation...
