FIG 8 — VP1 of BQCV does not contain a hydrophobic pocket. VP1 of BQCV (A) and human enterovirus 71 (EV71) (B) are shown in cartoon representations. The pocket factor of human enterovirus 71 is shown as a stick model in green. The volume of the pocket calculated with the program Caver is shown in panel B. In addition, the side chains of residues that interact with the pocket factor are shown as sticks. In BQCV, the core of the VP1 subunits is filled by side chains of residues forming the β-sheet BIDG and CHEF. The residues Asn71 and Tyr116 in BQCV obscure the volume that corresponds to the opening of the pocket at the capsid surface in EV71.
