Dengue virus capsid protein facilitates genome compaction and packaging
Boon, Priscilla L. S.; Silva Martins, Ana; Lim, Xin Ni; Enguita, Francisco J.; Santos, Nuno C.; Bond, Peter J.; Wan, Yue; Martins, Ivo C.Dengue virus (DENV) is a single-stranded (+)-sense RNA virus that infects humans and mosquitoes, posing a significant health risk in tropical and subtropical regions. Mature virions are composed of an icosahedral shell of envelope (E) and membrane (M) proteins circumscribing a lipid bilayer, which in turn contains a complex of the approximately 11 kb genomic RNA with capsid (C) proteins. Whereas the structure o...
