Highlights d Cryo-EM structure of the icosahedrally averaged ASFV capsid described at 4.6-Å d ASFV capsid comprises 8,280 major capsid protein p72 and 60 penton protein copies d At least three different minor proteins stabilize capsid by gluing neighboring capsomers d ASFV differs from other NCLDVs in multilayered structure and icosahedral morphology
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
