This putative domain is found in the large gene transfer agent protein. These produce defective phage like particles. This domain is similar to other phage-tail protein families.
This domain is found towards the N-terminal end of Tip attachment protein J from the bacteriophage lambda (GpJ) and similar sequences from tailed bacteriophages and bacterial prophages [1]. GpJ is involved in the induction of viral DNA ejection. It a ...
This domain is found towards the N-terminal end of Tip attachment protein J from the bacteriophage lambda (GpJ) and similar sequences from tailed bacteriophages and bacterial prophages [1]. GpJ is involved in the induction of viral DNA ejection. It attaches the virion to the host receptor. This domain shows an Ig-like structure [1,2].
