Popis: Geminiviruses are an important plant pathogen that causes large food crop losses globally. Here the authors describe a high resolution cryo-EM structure of the Ageratum yellow vein virus and reveal the molecular details of how a single capsid protein sequence can adopt the different conformations needed to build that geminate capsid.
