Classification of virus based on viral symmetry
Viruses are infectious intracellular obligate parasites or infectious nucleoproteins.
It consists of nucleic acid (RNA/DNA) enclosed in a protein coat called capsid.
The viral symmetry is determined by the orientation of capsid protein coat that protects the viral genome.
