Capsid
The protein layer that encloses the nucleic acid of a phage or virus and protects it from the environment.
Carbon source
A nutrient which provides the carbon required for cellular biosynthesis.

Helical capsids are composed of a single type of protomer stacked around a central circumference to form an enclosed tube resembling a spiral staircase. This arrangement results in rod-shaped virions which can be short and rigid, or long and flexible.

Phage display Phage display vectors express the inserted DNA as a protein at a prominent position on their capsid. This allows capture and isolation of recombinant phage clones by immobilised interacting proteins (eg. antibodies).

The form of genetic material contained in the viral capsid, the protein coat that surrounds the nucleic acid, determines the exact replication process.

Some other viruses don't have that, they have a so-called nucleocapsid, which is a protein shell with the RNA or DNA inside that. In the case of these enveloped viruses.

Viruses consist of a nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) enclosed in a protein coat (known as a capsid). The capsid may be a single protein repeated over and over, as in tobacco mosaic virus (TMV).

The salient feature of this phage is that it packages only a single strand of DNA into its capsid.
Full article >>>

Viruses are composed of an inner nucleic acid core (genetic material) and an outer protein coat (capsid).
Viruses that infect animals have an outer envelope (membrane) that is derived from the cell membrane of the host cell may surround the capsid.
Full article >>>

A particle consisting of a nucleic acid (RNA or DNA) genome surrounded by a protein coat (capsid) and sometimes also a membrane, which can replicate only after infecting a host cell.
