Norovirus (formerly Norwalk virus) virus capsid  responsible for the majority of non-bacterial outbreaks of human gastroenteritis. The genome is (+) sense single stranded RNA. Rendering is colored by radial depth-cue to highlight surface topography. View is along the 2-fold icosahedral symmetry axis. Individual small spheres are atoms making up the proteins.
