'''Crystal Structure of Vaccinia Virus L1 protein'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal Structure of Vaccinia Virus L1 protein==
Although eradicated from nature more than two decades ago, the threat of, smallpox has reemerged because of concerns over its use as a biological, weapon. We present the structure of the poxvirus L1 protein, a molecule, that is conserved throughout the poxvirus family and is nearly identical, in vaccinia virus and in variola virus, which causes smallpox. L1 is a, myristoylated envelope protein that is a potent target for neutralizing, antibodies and an important component of current experimental vaccines., The L1 structure reveals a hydrophobic cavity located adjacent to its N, terminus. The cavity would be capable of shielding the myristate moiety, which is essential for virion assembly. The structure of L1 is a step in, the elucidation of molecular mechanisms common to all poxviruses that may, stimulate the design of safer vaccines and new antipoxvirus drugs.

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PG095_VACCW PG095_VACCW] Component of the entry fusion complex (EFC), which consists of 11 proteins. During cell infection, this complex mediates entry of the virion core into the host cytoplasm by a two-step mechanism consisting of lipid mixing of the viral and cellular membranes and subsequent pore formation.<ref>PMID:34076488</ref>
