Abstract
The inner capside layer of human rotavirus was found to preferentially breakup into large ring-like morphological units. The outer capsid was found to be composed of capsomeres covered by a thin protein or glycoprotein covering. These capsomeres appeared to be broad headed and short stemmed, similar to the type of pin used to mark locations on a map (pushpin).This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
