A) Overlay of the calculated structure ensemble showing the well-ordered helical regions and flexible loops
B) "Top" view of the monomer and dimer showing the helical topology.
C) and D) "Side" views. The magenta helices on the bottom are postively charged and interact with the viral genomic nucleic acid. The top of the protein is a hydrophobic saddle that likely interacts with the plasma membrane during assembly.
