6ppi, resolution 4.70Å Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Structural highlights 6ppi is a 12 chain structure with sequence from Human herpesvirus 8 strain GK18. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: Electron Microscopy, Resolution 4.7Å Experimental data: Check Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function PORTL_HHV8P Forms a portal in the viral capsid through which viral DNA is translocated during DNA packaging. Assembles as a dodecamer at a single fivefold axe of the T=16 icosahedric capsid. Binds to the molecular motor that translocates the viral DNA, termed terminase.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04012] See Also Portal protein 3D structures
