  • Highlights
    1. Phospholipid-binding abilities of mpox virus A7 protein and its truncations are investigated.
    2. The structures of the N-terminal truncations of A7 protein (A7N121 and A7N137) are determined.
    3. Conformational changes of the conserved linking helix in A7 are illustrated.
    4. A structural model of the full-length A7 protein is proposed.
