Abstract

VP1 is the major viral coat protein of murine polyomavirus and can be used for the generation of virus-like particles in vitro. Here, we demonstrate that capsid assembly is an equilibrium reaction followed by oxidation of intracapsomere disulfide bonds, which are not essential for the formation of virus-like particles but enable complete particle assembly and prevent capsid disassembly.
