Function

[FIBP_BPT4] Structural component of the proximal-half of the long-tail fiber. The long-tail fibers of T4 are about 1600 Angstroms long with a kink in the middle that divides the fiber into proximal and distal halves.[1]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The phage-proximal part of the long tail fibres of bacteriophage T4 consists of a trimer of the 1289 amino-acid gene product 34 (gp34). Different carboxy-terminal parts of gp34 have been produced and crystallized. Crystals of gp34(726-1289) diffracting X-rays to 2.9 A resolution, crystals of gp34(781-1289) diffracting to 1.9 A resolution and crystals of gp34(894-1289) diffracting to 3.0 and 2.0 A resolution and belonging to different crystal forms were obtained. Native data were collected for gp34(726-1289) and gp34(894-1289), while single-wavelength anomalous diffraction data were collected for selenomethionine-containing gp34(781-1289) and gp34(894-1289). For the latter, high-quality anomalous signal was obtained.
