Long Tail Fiber
The Molecular Architecture of the Bacteriophage T4 Neck
Fibritin acts as a chaperone helping to attach the long tail fibers to the virus during the assembly process. The collar and whiskers are environment-sensing devices, regulating the retraction of the
Bacteriophage T4 long tail fiber domains
Bacteriophage T4 initially recognizes its host cells using its long tail fibers. Long tail fibers consist of a phage-proximal and a phage-distal rod, each around 80 nm long and attached to each other at a
Structure of the bacteriophage T4 long tail fiber receptor
Here we present the crystal structure of the receptor-binding tip of the bacteriophage T4 long tail fiber, which is highly homologous to the tip of the bacteriophage lambda side tail fibers.
RCSB PDB
Here we present the crystal structure of the receptor-binding tip of the bacteriophage T4 long tail fiber, which is highly homologous to the tip of the bacteriophage lambda side tail fibers.
Manipulating Interactions between T4 Phage Long Tail Fibers and
In this study, we examined the interaction between outer membrane protein C (OmpC), one of the Escherichia coli receptors, and the long tail fibers of bacteriophage T4.
Molecular anatomy of the receptor binding module of a
The tailed phage T4 encodes a specialized device for this purpose, the long tail fiber (LTF), which allows the virus to move on the bacterial surface and find a suitable site for infection.
What Are Tail Fibers and Why Are They Important?
Tail fibers are protein appendages located at the distal end of a bacteriophage''s tail, extending from a structure called the baseplate. These fibers vary in length and number. For
