- Mirid bug: a variety of leaf bug
- The outer covering of protein surrounding the nucleic acid of a virus
- A capsid is the protein shell of a virus. It consists of several oligomeric structural subunits made of protein called protomers. The observable 3-dimensional morphological subunits, which may or may not correspond to individual proteins, are called capsomeres. ...
- A protein shell comprising the main structural unit of a virus particle.
- The capsid is a shell of viruscoded proteins, which encloses the viral genome. Since capsid and genome are closely associated, the complex is often referred to as nucleocapsid. ...
- The protein coat of a virus. The term capsid came in 1960 from the French capside, from the Latin capsa, case. See also: Nucleocapsid.
- A part of some VIRUSES that surrounds their GENOME protecting it from the environment.
- The protein coat of a virus. The capsid often determines the shape of the virus. See coat protein.
- The protein shell that encloses the viral genome; rod-shaped, polyhedral, or more completely shaped.
