Organism
African cassava mosaic virus (isolate West Kenyan 844)
Function
Encapsidates the viral DNA into characteristic twinned ('geminate') particles. Binds the genomic viral ssDNA and shuttles it into and out of the cell nucleus. The CP of bipartite geminiviruses is not required for cell-to-cell or systemic movement.
Similarity
Belongs to the geminiviridae capsid protein family.
