Quasi-equivalent Assembly

Quasi-Equivalent Assembly is a theoretical framework in virology that explains how viral capsid proteins adopt nearly identical structural arrangements despite asymmetric bonding environments, enabling the formation of closed, symmetric capsids through energetically similar but not identical subunit interactions.
