Structural and Functional Properties of the Capsid Protein of Dengue and Related <i>Flavivirus</i>
Dengue, West Nile and Zika, closely related viruses of the Flaviviridae family, are an increasing global threat, due to the expansion of their mosquito vectors. They present a very similar viral particle with an outer lipid bilayer containing two viral proteins and, within it, the nucleocapsid core....
