Full-length human cytomegalovirus terminase pUL89 adopts a two-domain structure specific for DNA packaging.
A key step in replication of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in the host cell is the generation and packaging of unit-length genomes into preformed capsids. The enzymes involved in this process are the terminases. The HCMV terminase complex consists of two terminase subunits, the ATPase pUL56 and the n...
