Description
I got new software!! ;o) so I've been playing for a bit and this is the first image to get out!
This model is from electron microscopy co-ordinetes from the Protein Data Bank (authors: P.R.Kolatkar, J.Bella, N.H.Olson, C.Bator, T.S.Baker, M.G.Rossmann) and is the structure of human rhinovirus 16 (HRV16) complexed with a two domain fragment of its' cellular receptor, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (D1D1-ICAM-1).
Replicated over an icosahedron using software called Chimera to reproduce the 3D structure of a viral coat. Rendered in Cinema 4D.
