From: Immune response to a potyvirus with exposed amino groups available for chemical conjugation
Partial amino acid sequence and structural model of TEV capsid protein. A) Predicted sequence for the first 60 amino acids of TEV-NAY capsid protein (CP). Solid arrow indicates the first 29 amino acids of CP, located on the virion's surface. Solid boxes indicate lysines present in the surface-exposed region of CP that are available for chemical conjugation. B) Predicted structure for TEV-NAY CP, with the solvent-accessible N-terminal lysine-rich stretch. A closer view of localized lysines (K12, K13, K14, K17, and K20) is shown in the rectangle.
