Biphasic Packing of DNA and Internal Proteins in Bacteriophage T4 Heads Revealed by Bubblegram Imaging

The virions of tailed bacteriophages and the evolutionarily related herpesviruses contain, in addition to highly condensed DNA, substantial quantities of internal proteins. These proteins (“ejection proteins”) have roles in scaffolding, maturational proteolysis, and cell-to-cell delivery. Whereas ca...
