3D structure of the flavivirus capsid protein. Topological diagram of a C protein homodimer: α-helices 1–4 of each C monomer are shown in light blue, green, purple and dark blue, respectively. The α1–α1′ and α2–α2′ helices are located on the opposite side of the α4–α4′ helices, and the α3–α3′ helix is parallel to the α4–α4′ helix. The 3D structure was created with PyMOL software.
