The angles were then expanded to the C1 symmetry with the region 5 symmetry_expand program, followed by 3D classification focused on a 5-fold vertex of the icosahedral phage particle using a manually generated smooth ellipsoidal mask. This generated a set of angles with the tail aligned to the same single 5-fold vertex, which then were used to reconstruct the phage particle in the C1 symmetry.</details>
