Protein
Spanin, outer membrane subunit
Organism
Enterobacteria phage 933W
Function
Component of the spanin complex that disrupts the host outer membrane and causes cell lysis during virus exit. The spanin complex conducts the final step in host lysis by disrupting the outer membrane after holin and endolysin action have permeabilized the inner membrane and degraded the host peptidoglycans (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the lambdalikevirus o-spanin family.
