Structures of Three Actinobacteriophage Capsids: Roles of Symmetry and Accessory Proteins

Structures of Three Actinobacteriophage Capsids: Roles of Symmetry and Accessory Proteins

Here, we describe the structure of three actinobacteriophage capsids that infect <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i>. The capsid structures were resolved to approximately six angstroms, which allowed confirmation that each bacteriophage uses the HK97-fold to form their capsid. One bacteriopha...
