Icosahedral dsDNA viruses such as the tailed bacteriophages and herpesviruses have a conserved pathway to virion assembly that is initiated from a scaffolding protein driven procapsid formation. The dsDNA is actively packaged into procapsids, which undergo complex maturation reactions to form infectious virions. In bacteriophage P22, scaffolding protein (SP) directs the assembly of coat proteins into procapsids that have a T=7 icosahedral arrangement, en route to the formation of the mature P22...

Protein structural dynamics by Magic-Angle Spinning NMR
Magic-Angle Spinning (MAS) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a fast-developing technique, capable of complementing solution NMR, X-ray crystallography, and electron microscopy for the biophysical characterization of microcrystalline, poorly crystalline or disordered protein samples, such as enzymes, biomolecular assemblies, membrane-embedded systems or fibrils. Beyond structures, MAS NMR is an ideal tool for the investigation of dynamics, since it is unique in its ability to distinguish static...

Abstract
The capsid dynamics of filamentous bacteriophages is related to their function, stability and interactions with the genome, and can be assessed by measuring the chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) of 15N-amides, which are sensitive to large amplitude...
