About this Cover
Cover photograph (Copyright © 2006, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.): Structure of adenovirus determined by cryoEM single particle reconstruction at 6-Å resolution. The structural analysis included fitting the crystal structures of two capsid proteins, hexon and penton base, and secondary structure predictions for the remaining capsid proteins. Only protein IX is predicted to have a strong propensity for coiled-coil formation. One vertex region is shown to illustrate the newly visualized coiled-coil (magenta) assigned to the protein IX C-terminal domain. Also shown are hexons (white and blue) and the penton base and fiber (red). (See related article on page 12049.)
