DNA binding and condensation properties of the herpes simplex virus type 1 triplex protein VP19C.

DNA binding and condensation properties of the herpes simplex virus type 1 triplex protein VP19C.

Herpesvirus capsids are regular icosahedrons with a diameter of a 125 nm and are made up of 162 capsomeres arranged on a T = 16 lattice. The capsomeres (VP5) interact with the triplex structure, which is a unique structural feature of herpesvirus capsid shells. The triplex is a heterotrimeric comple...
