Abstract excerpt
Viruses are parasite by nature and they are responsible for many diseases. Inhibitor development is very difficult for viruses due to their rapid mutative nature. A common approach for treating virus infection is targeting them at the genomic level and an encapsulation mechanism can be one of the targets. Sesbania mosaic virus (SeMV) is a spherical virus and its capsid is formed by a coat protein, which contains...
