Molecular Structure of fd Filamentous Bacteriophage Refined with Respect to X-ray Fibre DiffractionMolecular Structure of fd Filamentous Bacteriophage Refined with Respect to X-ray Fibre Diffraction
Structural highlights
FunctionCAPSD_BPFD Self assembles to form a helical capsid wrapping up the viral genomic DNA. The capsid displays a filamentous structure with a length of 760-1950 nm and a width of 6-8 nm. The virion assembly and budding take place at the host inner membrane (By similarity). |
