... trimers to form capsomeres on the surface of a VP3 scaffold. Investigation of the crystal structure of BTV VP7 (Grimes et al. , 1995) revealed that VP7 consists of two domains, an upper and lower domain. The upper domain is formed by the central part of the VP7 molecule (amino acid residues 121-249) ...
