The structures of a naturally empty cowpea mosaic virus particle and its genome-containing counterpart by cryo-electron microscopy
Abstract Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) is a picorna-like plant virus. As well as an intrinsic interest in CPMV as a plant pathogen, CPMV is of major interest in biotechnology applications such as nanotechnology. Here, we report high resolution cryo electron microscopy (cryo-EM) maps of wild type CPMV c...
