Smallpox is caused by the Variola virus, a member of the genus Orthopoxvirus (Smallpox, CDC). It’s genome consists of a single, linear double-stranded DNA molecule made up of 186,102 base pairs. There are 10 enzymes that regulate gene expression, as well as about 100 nucleoproteins involved in transcription of the DNA. The DNA and nucleoproteins are held within a biconcave (dumbbell-shaped) core with two lateral bodies on either side. The function of the lateral bodies is unknown. The outer surface of the variola virus consists of lipids and proteins that surround this core. The variola virus consists of 90% protein, 5% lipid, and 3% DNA (Shubhash and Parija, 2009).

This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
