Role of Phage Capsid in the Resistance to UV-C Radiations

Role of Phage Capsid in the Resistance to UV-C Radiations

The conformational variation of the viral capsid structure plays an essential role both for the environmental resistance and acid nuclear release during cellular infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate how capsid rearrangement in engineered phages of M13 protects viral DNA and peptide bonds...
