Protein Domain : Bacteriophage A118-like, holin/antiholin IPR009708

Type  Family
Description  Holins are a diverse family of proteins that cause bacterial membrane lysis during late-protein synthesis. It is thought that the temporal precision of holin-mediated lysis may occur through the buildup of a holin oligomer which causes the lysis [].An alternative isoform exists that is thought to function as an antiholin by counteracting the aggregation of the holin molecules. The isoforms differ by only 2 residues at the N terminus [ ].This entry represents the Bacteriophage A118-like, holin/antiholin protein. The characteristics of the protein distribution suggest prophage matches in addition to the phage matches.
