| Type | Family |
| Description | The proteins in this family are found in bacteria and viruses (Caudovirales) and represent bacteriophage capsid proteins. The major capsid protein of Enterobacteria phage HK97 assembles to form an icosahedral capsid [ , ]. Included within the capsid protein is the delta domain which acts as the scaffold upon which the capsid is built []. Bacterial and archaeal encapsulin-like systems and HK97-type viruses share a common ancestor and it is likely that encapsulins have evolved from HK97-type phages ]. |
