Enterovirus capsid proteins structure. Computer artwork showing how the four component proteins (VP1 to VP4) of an enterovirus particle (virion) interlock to form the capsid (outer shell). Enteroviruses are a genus of non-enveloped positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses associated with several human and mammalian diseases. Each virion is composed of sixty copies of each of the four structural proteins, which surround the RNA genome.
