Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CPMV) infects black-eyed pea plants. The CPMV is composed of protein shell (capsid) and RNA. CPMV is used in nanotechnology due to its pH and metal ion-dependent polymorphism which can be used for delivery of small molecules.

3D structures of CPMV

1ny7, 2bfu – CPMV small + large subunits
1cwp – CPMV coat protein + RNA
