Gene

Protein
Protein P17
Organism
Enterobacteria phage PRD1
Length
86 amino acids
Function
Assembly protein that acts late in phage assembly, after capsid protein folding and multimerization, and sorting of membrane proteins has occurred. The major coat protein P3 and two assembly factors (P10 and P17) are needed during the assembly of the virus particle inside the host cell, when the capsid protein multimers are capable of enclosing the host-derived membrane, containing the virus-encoded membrane-associated proteins.
