3qpr, resolution 5.20Å Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Structural highlights 3qpr is a 7 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia virus HK97. This structure supersedes the now removed PDB entry 3p8q. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 5.2Å Experimental data: Check Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT 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.
