Figure 2

Large scale conformational changes occurring during Cystoviruses maturation. Surface representation of the Φ6 procapsid (EMDB 2341) (A) and cross section (B) showing its characteristic dodecahedral shape with recessed vertices. Surface representation of the detergent treated Φ6 expanded capsid (EMDB 1206) (C) and cross section (D) revealing the magnitude of the reorganization associated with genome packaging and maturation. The maps are radially colored as indicated at the bottom of the figures (indicated values correspond to diameter). The orientation of icosahedral axes are indicated in panel B.
