pH-induced morphological changes of proteinaceous viral shells

Changes in environmental pH can induce morphological changes in empty proteinaceous shells of bacteriophages in vitro that are very similar to changes occurring in viral capsids in vivo after encapsidation of DNA. These changes in capsid shape and size cannot be explained with a simple elastic model...
