Preferred Label : viral structural proteins;
MeSH definition : Viral proteins that are components of the mature assembled VIRUS PARTICLES. They may
include nucleocapsid core proteins (gag proteins), enzymes packaged within the virus
particle (pol proteins), and membrane components (env proteins). These do not include
the proteins encoded in the VIRAL GENOME that are produced in infected cells but which
are not packaged in the mature virus particle,i.e. the so called non-structural proteins
(VIRAL NONSTRUCTURAL PROTEINS).;
MeSH synonym : structural proteins, virus; structural proteins, viral; proteins, viral structural; virus structural proteins; proteins, virus structural;
Wikipedia automatic translation : Viral structural protein;
MeSH hyponym : viral structural proteins VP; polypeptide VP1, structural; VP(7); VP(3); VP(2); VP(6); VP(1); simian virus 40 virion protein 1; Structural Polypeptide VP1; VP1, Structural Polypeptide;
MeSH annotation : coordinate IM with specific protein (IM) specific virus (IM);
