Visualization of a Missing Link in Retrovirus Capsid Assembly
For a retrovirus such as HIV to be infectious, a properly formed capsid is needed; however, unusually among viruses, retrovirus capsids are highly variable in structure. According to the fullerene conjecture, they are composed of hexamers and pentamers of CA protein, with a capsid’s shape varying ac...
