Abstract

The rVP2H particles, formed by infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) outer structural and primary immunogenic protein VP2, have been crystallized and the diffraction data (6 Å) showed that the rVP2H crystals belong to the cubic space group P213 with a unit-cell dimension of 323.1 Å. The icosahedral symmetry of the particles is clearly seen in the self-rotation function maps, with dyads and triads in coincidence with the crystallographic axes.
