The DNA density distribution in the capsid of R = 10 nm under osmotic pressure of p = 5 atm in a solution that contains 5 mM of MnCl2 and 0.25 M of NaCl. Panel (a) represents a three-dimensional cut-through view of the density. The curves in panel (b) display the DNA densities along the directions (fixed angles θ) indicated in panel (a). For the calculation of 3D profile, Nr = 90 and Nθ = 42 divisions were used. The length of encapsidated DNA is 657.8 nm.
