Viral Ejection Proteins: Mosaically Conserved, Conformational Gymnasts

Bacterial viruses (or bacteriophages) have developed formidable ways to deliver their genetic information inside bacteria, overcoming the complexity of the bacterial-cell envelope. In short-tailed phages of the <i>Podoviridae</i> superfamily, genome ejection is mediated by a set of myste...
