Crystals of Mengo virions have been grown reproducibly and analyzed by X-ray diffraction. These crystals diffract to a resolution of 7.0 A. The unit cell exhibits cubic symmetry with a = 422 A. The space group is P23, with four virus particles situated on crystallographic threefold axes. Picornavirions from three of the four recognized genera (Study Group on Picornaviridae, Intervirology 10, 165-180, 1978) have now been examined at low resolution by X-ray diffraction: poliovirus type 1 (J. T. Finch and A. Klug, Nature (London) 183, 1709-1714, 1959; J. M. Hogle, J. Mol. Biol. 160, 663-668, 1982); human rhinovirus 14 (J. W. Erickson, E. A. Frankenberger, M. G. Rossmann, G. S. Fout, K. C. Medappa, and R. R. Rueckert, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 80, 931-934, 1983); and Mengo virus.
门戈病毒粒子的晶体已可重复生长并通过X射线衍射进行分析。这些晶体的衍射分辨率为7.0埃。晶胞呈现立方对称,a = 422埃。空间群为P23,四个病毒粒子位于晶体学三重轴上。现在已通过X射线衍射以低分辨率检查了四个公认属中的三个属的微小核糖核酸病毒粒子(微小核糖核酸病毒科研究组,《病毒学国际杂志》10,165 - 180,1978):1型脊髓灰质炎病毒(J. T. 芬奇和A. 克卢格,《自然》(伦敦)183,1709 - 1714,1959;J. M. 霍格尔,《分子生物学杂志》160,663 - 668,1982);人鼻病毒14(J. W. 埃里克森、E. A. 弗兰肯伯格、M. G. 罗斯曼、G. S. 福特、K. C. 梅达帕和R. R. 吕克特,《美国国家科学院院刊》80,931 - 934,1983);以及门戈病毒。
