Abstract excerpt
Filamentous bacteriophage (phage) are single-stranded DNA viruses that infect bacteria. Single-site mutants of fd phage have been studied by magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance and by small-angle X-ray scattering. Detailed analysis has been performed that provides insight into structural variations on three length scales. The results, analyzed in conjunction with existing literature data, suggest that...
