Goodsell, David S.
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, v40 n5 p291-296 Sep-Oct 2012
Data from electron microscopy, X-ray crystallography, and biophysical analysis are used to create illustrations of viruses in their cellular context. This report describes the scientific data and artistic methods used to create three illustrations: a depiction of the poliovirus lifecycle, budding of influenza virus from a cell surface, and a mature HIV particle in blood serum. (Contains 3 figures.)
