Biochemical and Biophysical Characterization of the dsDNA Packaging Motor from the <i>Lactococcus lactis</i> Bacteriophage Asccphi28

Double-stranded DNA viruses package their genomes into pre-assembled protein procapsids. This process is driven by macromolecular motors that transiently assemble at a unique vertex of the procapsid and utilize homomeric ring ATPases to couple genome encapsidation to ATP hydrolysis. Here, we describ...
