Capsid protein structure, self-assembly, and processing reveal morphogenesis of the marine virophage mavirus

Virophages have the unique property of parasitizing giant viruses within unicellular hosts. Little is understood about how they form infectious virions in this tripartite interplay. We provide mechanistic insights into assembly and maturation of mavirus, a marine virophage, by combining structural a...
