Fig. 8.
Image of the CCMV pentamer of dimers that experiments [289] indicate is the critical nucleus. Atoms are shown in van der Waals representation and colored according to their quasi-equivalent conformation, with A monomers in blue and B monomers in red. The coordinates were obtained from the CCMV crystal structure, PDBID 1CWP [238] using the Viper oligomer generator [212] and the image was generated with VMD [123].
