Capsid scaffolding protein
Acts as a scaffold protein by binding major capsid protein in the cytoplasm, inducing the nuclear localization of both proteins. Multimerizes in the nucleus such as major capsid protein forms the icosahedral T=16 capsid. Autocatalytic cleavage releases the assembly protein, and subsequently abolishes interaction with major capsid protein. Cleavages products are evicted from the capsid before or during DNA packaging.
Assemblin
Protease that plays an essential role in virion assembly within the nucleus. Catalyzes the cleavage of the assembly protein after formation of the spherical procapsid. By that cleavage, the capsid matures and gains its icosahedral shape. The cleavage sites seem to include -Ala-Ser-, -Ala-Ala-, as well as Ala-Thr bonds. Assemblin and cleavages products are evicted from the capsid before or during DNA packaging.
Assembly protein
Plays a major role in capsid assembly. Acts as a scaffold protein by binding major capsid protein. Multimerizes in the nucleus such as major capsid protein forms the icosahedral T=16 capsid. Cleaved by assemblin after capsid completion. The cleavages products are evicted from the capsid before or during DNA packaging.

Post-translational modification
Capsid scaffolding protein
Capsid scaffolding protein is cleaved by assemblin after formation of the spherical procapsid. As a result, the capsid obtains its mature, icosahedral shape. Cleavages occur at two or more sites: release (R-site) and maturation (M-site).
