Adenovirus hexon protein
Adenovirus hexon protein, molecular model. Hexon proteins are part of the protein coat or shell (capsid) of adenoviruses. In viruses, the capsid encloses the genetic material and in adenoviruses is icosahedral in shape (20-sided). There are 12 hexon trimers on each of the 20 faces of the icosahedral capsid, with nine central hexons and three peripheral ones involved in forming the vertex structures. The total number of hexon trimers is 240. This hexon protein is from human adenovirus 5 (hAd5). It contains 951 amino acids. Adenoviruses cause infections of the upper respiratory tract, causing cold-like symptoms

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of the Adenovirus hexon protein, a vital component of the adenoviruses' protein coat. The hexon proteins form the icosahedral capsid, which encloses and protects the genetic material within these viruses. With its distinct 20-sided shape, each face of this capsid is adorned with twelve hexon trimers - nine central ones and three peripheral ones that contribute to forming vertex structures. In total, there are an astonishing 240 hexon trimers present in this particular human adenovirus 5 (hAd5) sample. The black background accentuates the stunning graphic representation of this macromolecule, allowing us to appreciate its structural complexity. This artwork provides valuable insights into virology and molecular biology by highlighting key features such as amino acid composition and biomolecular interactions. Adenoviruses are notorious for causing upper respiratory tract infections that manifest as cold-like symptoms in humans. Understanding their unique capsid structure, particularly the role played by hexon proteins like those depicted here, is crucial for developing effective treatments or preventive measures against these viral infections. This remarkable image from Science Photo Library serves as a testament to our ever-expanding knowledge in microbiology and biochemistry while offering a visually striking piece of scientific artistry.
