Mechanical characterization of P2 bacteriophage by using Young’s modulus measurements

The bacteriophage P2 capsids have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Studies have been carried out on fully filled and 2/3 filled capsids containing dsDNA genomes. In order to get the quantitative information of the capsid, a nanoindentation tec...
