Protein Domain : Phage P22 tailspike-like, N-terminal domain superfamily IPR036730

Type  Homologous_superfamily
Description  The tailspike protein of Salmonella bacteriophage P22 is a viral adhesion protein that mediates attachment of the viral protein to host cell-surface lipopolysaccharide. The tailspike protein displays both receptor binding and destroying properties, inactivating the receptor by endoglycosidase activity. The N-terminal, head-binding domain mediates the non-covalent attachment of the six homotrimeric tailspike molecules to the DNA injection apparatus [ ]. The N-terminal domain of the P22 tailspike protein shows significant sequence similarity to the N-terminal domain of the Shigella phage Sf6 tailspike protein [].
