Stability of Norwalk virus capsid protein interfaces evaluated by in-silico nanoindentation
Norwalk virus causes severe gastroenteritis for which there is currently no specific anti-viral therapy. A stage of the infection process is uncoating of the protein capsid to expose the viral genome and allow for viral replication. A mechanical characterization of the Norwalk virus may provide impo...
