Whole cell cryo-electron tomography reveals distinct disassembly intermediates of vaccinia virus.
At each round of infection, viruses fall apart to release their genome for replication, and then reassemble into stable particles within the same host cell. For most viruses, the structural details that underlie these disassembly and assembly reactions are poorly understood. Cryo-electron tomography...
