Figure 1. Cryo-EM reconstruction and atomic modelling of KSHV capsid.

Figure 1

a, Radially-coloured cryo-EM density map of KSHV capsid viewed along a three-fold axis. b, Zoomed in view of one facet of the icosahedral capsid. Densities of triplex Tf and penton SCP are not displayed. c, Schematic of one asymmetric unit (shaded) of the capsid. The inset illustrates the heterotrimeric nature of a triplex. d, Atomic models of individual capsid proteins in ribbon representation in rainbow colours, from the N terminus (blue) to the C terminus (red).
