Structural highlights

Function

CAPSD_BPHK7 Assembles to form an icosahedral capsid of 66 nm, with a T=7 laevo symmetry (PubMed:11000116, PubMed:21276801). Responsible for its self-assembly into a procapsid. The phage does not need to encode a separate scaffolfing protein because its capsid protein contains the delta domain that carries that function.^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}
