Abstract excerpt
Adenovirus protein VII is the major protein component of the viral nucleoprotein core. It is a nonspecific DNA-binding protein that condenses viral DNA inside the capsid.

Here we characterize the release of protein VII from infectious genomes during a time period that corresponds to the...
