Function
CAPSA_BPT7 Assembles with the minor capsid protein to form an icosahedral capsid with a T=7 symmetry, about 60 nm in diameter, and consisting of 415 capsid proteins. The major and minor capsid proteins are incorporated into the capsid in about a 90/10 ratio respectively. Once the capsid is formed, encapsidates one single copy of the viral genome.[1]
