UniProtKB description: Self-assembles to form a proteinaceous shell that encloses the viral DNA and compartmentalizes proteins and DNA during viral infection (PubMed:28813669). This micrometer-scale compartment contains narrow pores and is the site of viral replication, with the proteins involved in DNA replication localized inside (By similarity). Provides a surface for docking of capsids during packaging (PubMed:28813669). Probably protects the viral genome against host defenses (By similarity).
