ATOMIC MODEL FOR BLUETONGUE VIRUS (BTV) CORE

Overview

The structure of the core particle of bluetongue virus has been determined, by X-ray crystallography at a resolution approaching 3.5 A. This, transcriptionally active compartment, 700 A in diameter, represents the, largest molecular structure determined in such detail. The atomic, structure indicates how approximately 1,000 protein components, self-assemble, using both the classical mechanism of quasi-equivalent, contacts, which are achieved through triangulation, and a different, method, which we term geometrical quasi-equivalence.
