Short nameCapsid_Gp10A/Gp10B_dom
domain relationships

Description

This entry describes a domain found in capsid proteins, such as Gp10A (also known as Major capsid protein,
P19726
) and Gp10B (also known as Minor capsid protein,
P19727
) from bacteriophage T7 and T3 and similar sequences from tailed bateriophages. Gp10A subunits adopt an HK97-like conformation to form the viral shell. They incorporate into the capsid in about a 90/10 ratio
