Abstract excerpt
The genomes of bacteriophage phi6 and its relatives are packaged through a mechanism that involves the recognition and translocation of the three different plus-strand transcripts of the segmented double-stranded-RNA genomes into preformed polyhedral structures called procapsids or inner cores. The packaging requires the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates and takes place in the order segment S-segment M,...
