Correlation of chemical reactivity of Nudaurelia capensis omega virus with a pH-induced conformational change.
Nudaurelia capensis omega virus, which undergoes one of the largest known structural changes of icosahedral viruses in response to its environment, exhibits chemical reactivity which depends on its conformational state.
