Stability and assembly <it>in vitro </it>of bacteriophage PP7 virus-like particles

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The stability of a virus-like particle (VLP) is an important consideration for its use in nanobiotechnology. The icosahedral capsid of the RNA bacteriophage PP7 is cross-linked by disulfide bonds between coat protein dimers at its 5-...
