Function

Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CPMV) infects black-eyed pea plants. The CPMV is composed of protein shell (capsid) and RNA. Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus coast protein trimer with RNA (PDB entry 1cwp).

Relevance

CPMV is used in nanotechnology due to its pH and metal ion-dependent polymorphism which can be used for delivery of small molecules. [1]
