Poliovirus Type 2 Capsid Protein (None)

Target: None
Molecular classification: Viral structural protein, Capsid protein

Overview

The Poliovirus Type 2 capsid protein refers to the structural proteins that form the outer shell (capsid) of poliovirus serotype 2. The capsid, composed of VP1, VP2, VP3, and VP4, is essential for protecting the viral RNA genome and mediating host cell entry by binding to the PVR (CD155) receptor. The capsid proteins play a role in virus assembly and are targets for neutralizing antibodies.
