Understanding capsid assembly using a thermophilic virus

Double-stranded DNA viruses including bacteriophage and herpesviruses package their genomes into empty capsids during viral replication, using an ATP-driven motor. The capsid expands to accommodate the full genome and maintain viable DNA densities. Structural and functional studies of the mechanism...
