Portal Motor Velocity and Internal Force Resisting Viral DNA Packaging in Bacteriophage φ29

During the assembly of many viruses, a powerful molecular motor compacts the genome into a preassembled capsid. Here, we present measurements of viral DNA packaging in bacteriophage φ29 using an improved optical tweezers method that allows DNA translocation to be measured from initiation to completi...
