Architecture of the flexible tail tube of bacteriophage SPP1
Bacteriophages of the Siphoviridae family have a long, flexible, non-contractile tail that has been difficult to characterize structurally. Here, the authors present the atomic structure of the tail tube of one of these phages, showing a hollow flexible tube formed by hexameric rings stacked by flex...

| Sumario: | Bacteriophages of the Siphoviridae family have a long, flexible, non-contractile tail that has been difficult to characterize structurally. Here, the authors present the atomic structure of the tail tube of one of these phages, showing a hollow flexible tube formed by hexameric rings stacked by flexible linkers. |
