Penton blooming, a conserved mechanism of genome delivery used by disparate microviruses

ABSTRACT Microviruses are single-stranded DNA viruses infecting bacteria, characterized by T = 1 shells made of single jelly-roll capsid proteins. To understand how microviruses infect their host cells, we have isolated and studied an unusually large microvirus, Ebor. Ebor belongs to the proposed “T...
