VIRION
Icosahedral capsid of 400 nm in diameter, with a symmetry between T=972 and T=1141 or T=1200 (H=19+/-1, K=19+/-1). 125 nm long closely packed fibres projecting out from the casid surface (750 nm total length). The capsid contains the internal core surrounded by an internal lipid layer. A five-fold axe display a starfish-shaped structure
