Cryo-electron microscopy structures of capsids and in situ portals of DNA-devoid capsids of human cytomegalovirus
Abstract The portal-scaffold complex is believed to nucleate the assembly of herpesvirus procapsids. During capsid maturation, two events occur: scaffold expulsion and DNA incorporation. The portal-scaffold interaction and the conformational changes that occur to the portal during the different stag...
