The '''portal protein''' (PP) is a key component during viral chromosomal packaging. PPs have a central channel through which DNA movements occur. PPs are proposed to be the mechanical device that pumps DNA to the interior of the viral capsid<ref>PMID:15110523</ref>. The DNA translocation motor is composed of PP and of the the viral ATPase that fuels DNA translocation. The PP has an active control over the viral ATPase activity<ref>PMID:16735502</ref>. | The '''portal protein''' (PP) is a key component during viral chromosomal packaging.
