Stoichiometric Binding of Cyclophilin-A to The HIV-1 Capsid Modulates Its Mechanoelastic Properties.
Atomic force microscopy nanoindentation simulations of CypA-decorated capsids reveal that CypA acts as a stoichiometric regulator of capsid mechanical response, highlighting how surface ligand binding programs the mechanical response of protein nanocapsules, offering principles for stimuli-responsive biomolecular mater...
