title: Correlation of chemical reactivity of Nudaurelia capensis omega virus with a pH-induced conformational change.
abstract: 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.
