Functional Families

Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily: Carmovirus coat protein

The capsid proteins of plant icosahedral positive strand RNA viruses form 4 different domains, a positively charged, N-terminal 'R' domain, which interacts with RNA; a connecting arm, 'a' domain; a central, surface 'S' domain, involved in virion shell formation; and a projecting, C-terminal 'P' domain PMID:7704529. Some of the viruses lack either the R or P domains.

Structural domains comprising this superfamily share the structure of the carmovirus coat protein, a domain found in icosahedral viral capsid protein of the Carnation Mottle Virus (CMtV), to the C terminus of the S domain PMID:8307192.
