Metal Print : Foot-and-mouth disease virus capsid
Metal Prints From Science Photo Library
Foot-and-mouth disease virus capsid
Foot-and-mouth disease virus capsid, molecular model. This virus, which can be fatal, causes foot-and-mouth disease in cloven-hooved animals. It is highly infectious with culls used to prevent its spread. In viruses, the capsid is the protein shell that encloses the genetic material. A capsid consists of subunits called capsomeres that self-assemble to form the shell seen here. Here, this shell, approximately spherical in shape, has icosahedral symmetry. One of the functions of the capsid is to aid the transmission of the viral genetic material into host cells. The cell mechanisms are then used to produce new virus particles

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of the Foot-and-mouth disease virus capsid, a molecular model that represents the protein shell enveloping its genetic material. Known for causing a highly contagious and potentially fatal disease in cloven-hooved animals, this virus has significant implications in agriculture. Against a striking black background, this spherical shell exhibits icosahedral symmetry, composed of self-assembling subunits called capsomeres. The capsid plays a crucial role in facilitating the transmission of viral genetic material into host cells, where it manipulates cellular mechanisms to produce new virus particles. The image highlights the complex nature of this pathogen with its detailed illustration and graphic representation. It serves as an invaluable tool for scientists studying virology, microbiology, and molecular biology. With its emphasis on structural biology and biochemistry, this print offers insights into how proteins function within viruses. Its visual appeal lies not only in its scientific significance but also in its artistic portrayal of macromolecules at work. While evoking thoughts about livestock health and agricultural practices aimed at preventing outbreaks through culling measures, this image reminds us of both the beauty and danger found within our natural world.
