We present the in situ structures of the symmetry-mismatched portal and the capsid vertex-specific components (CVSCs) of HCMV. The 5-fold symmetric 10-helix anchor-uncommon among known portals-contacts the portal-encircling DNA, which is presumed to squeeze the portal as the genome packaging proceeds. We surmise that the 10-helix anchor dampens this action to delay the portal reaching a "head-full" packaging state, thus facilitating the large genome to be packaged. The 6-fold symmetric turret, latched via a coiled coil to a helix from a major capsid protein, supports the portal to retain the packaged genome. CVSCs at the penton vertices-presumed to increase inner capsid pressure-display a low stoichiometry, which would aid genome retention. We also demonstrate that the portal and capsid undergo conformational changes to facilitate genome ejection after viral cell entry. |
