A succession of two viral lattices drives vaccinia virus assembly.
During its cytoplasmic replication, vaccinia virus assembles non-infectious spherical immature virions (IV) coated by a viral D13 lattice. Subsequently, IV mature into infectious brick-shaped intracellular mature virions (IMV) that lack D13. Here, we performed cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) of f...
