T4 viruses with mutations in certain genes produce unassembled viral components. These particles are combined in the test tube in an effort to learn how the genes of a virus specify its shape By R ...

T4 offers more than simple distance measurements. Its surface contains over 40 different proteins arranged in precise patterns. The team demonstrated this versatility by imaging both the complete ...
