Determination of virus structures including (1) Porcine parvovirus capsids.
The aim will be to collect as complete a data set as possible in order to determine the 3 dimensional structure of this virus. At present insufficient crystallographic data is available to determine the structure of this virus, because we can obtain 3 or fewer diffraction images from each crystal. (2) Rhinovirus drug dependent mutant.
Aim i s to study the mechanism of drug resistance in rhinovirus. (3) Coxsackie virus.
The aim will be to collect a complete data set and determine the structure, for comparison with other picomaviruses and to study its interaction with the host receptor.
