Keep in mind:
We produced the video in record time which’s when errors occur. If you are questioning the blurs appearing occasionally, here is the description:

0: 34 The word ‘micelle’ was misspelled. We do not wish to enhance the knowing of the bad spelling of this word.

0: 49 The representation is of the M (membrane) protein, which is associated with catching and arranging the genomic RNA throughout budding. The PDB entry 1zva is was utilized to design the M protein.

We excuse the errors.
