Protein Domain : Baseplate protein Gp16, domain D4 IPR043073

Type	Homologous_superfamily
Description	ORF16 (or gp16) is a tail-phage P2-like protein that forms part of the base-plate at the tip of the phage tail. The whole base-plate complex is involved in host recognition and attachment, and consists of several proteins derived from consecutive open-reading-frames. This central domain is expressed from ORF16 in the lactococcal P2-phage and forms a trimer. ORF16 is a four domain protein that adopts a fold comparable to that of gp27 of myophage T4 [ ].This superfamily represents the domain 4 of the ORF16 protein [ ]. Structurally, it consists of 3 alpha helices and 3 beta sheets.
