Coarse-grained simulation reveals key features of HIV-1 capsid self-assembly

Significant morphological changes occur during the conversion of the immature HIV virion into a mature infectious form. Here the authors use coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to model HIV-1 capsid self-assembly and disassembly events that suggests several metastable capsid intermediates...
