Protein Domain : Capsid scaffolding protein GpO IPR009228

Type  Family
Description  The bacteriophage P2 capsid is formed by multiple copies of the capsid protein GpN. The scaffolding protein GpO, which is essential for the assembly of this capsid, consists of an N-terminal serine protease domain and a C-terminal scaffolding domain [ , ]. During capsid assembly, GpO interacts with GpN via the N-terminal domain, while the C-terminal domain plays an essential role as a scaffold. When capsid assembly is complete the C-terminal domain of GpO is cleaved autocatalytically. Cleavage of GpN to its mature form by the remaining N-terminal domain then completes the maturation process.
