Gene
rzoD
Protein
Prophage outer membrane lipoprotein RzoD
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Length
60 amino acids
Function
Component of the spanin complex that disrupts the outer membrane and causes cell lysis during virus exit. The spanin complex conducts the final step in cell 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.
