Mup41

Gene
Mup41
Protein
Probable tail assembly protein FS-gp41
Organism
Escherichia phage Mu
Length
188 amino acids
Function
Required for tail assembly (Probable). Together with gp41, may act as a chaperone promoting the assembly of the tape measure protein (TMP) and the tail tube protein (TTP) into a functional tail shaft (Potential).
Similarity
Belongs to the mulikevirus tail assembly protein family.

Protein
Probable tail assembly protein gp41
Organism
Escherichia phage Mu
Length
144 amino acids
Function
Required for tail assembly (Probable). Together with FS-gp41, may act as a chaperone mediating the interaction between the tape measure protein (TMP) and the tail tube protein (TTP) thereby directing the polymerization of TTP to form a tail of the correct length (Potential).
Similarity
Belongs to the mulikevirus tail assembly protein family.
