Virus-like particles (VLPs) have emerged as important and versatile architectures for
chemical manipulation in the development of functional hybrid nanostructures. Here we …

Viruses and virus-like particles (VLPs) are useful tools in biomedical research. Their defined
structural attributes make them attractive platforms for engineered interactions over large …

Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) RNA-guided
endonucleases are powerful new tools for targeted genome engineering. These nucleases provide …

Attachment of multiple chelated Gd 3+ ions to the interior of bacteriophage P22 viral capsids
affords nanoscale MRI contrast agents with extremely high relaxivity values. Highly …

Highlights • Both the E2 and E1 glycoproteins interact with the cellular Mxr8 receptor. • TF
virulence factor production correlates with structural polyprotein topology. • Some …

Virus-like particles are powerful platforms for the development of functional hybrid materials.
Here, we have grown a cross-linked polymer (cross-linked aminoethyl methacrylate) within …

Polymeric nanohybrid P22 virus capsids were used as templates for high density Gd 3+
loading to explore magnetic field-dependent (0.5–7.0 T) proton relaxivity. The field-dependence …

The Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) core protein homodimers self-assemble to form an icosahedral
capsid that packages the viral genome. Disassembly occurs in the nuclear basket to release …

Viruses require host cell metabolites to productively infect, and the mechanisms by which
viruses usurp these molecules are diverse. One group of cellular metabolites important in virus …

The capsid of P22 bacteriophage undergoes a series of structural transitions during
maturation that guide it from spherical to icosahedral morphology. The transitions include the …
