This entry represents the Tailspike Concanavalin-like C-terminal domain, also known as domain 6 (d6) of the tailspike receptor-binding protein (RBP) gp63.1 of bacteriophage G7C. This domain is structurally similar to carbohydrate-binding domains and is putatively involved in substrate binding [1]. This beta-sandwich fold consists of two anti-parallel beta-sheets, each containing six strands.
This domain is found in Tail fiber protein from Escherichia virus G7C (Gp63) and similar proteins from tailed bacteriophages and bacterial prophages. Gp63 is a receptor-binding proteins (RBP) that emanate from the phage particle in the form of fibres ...
This domain is found in Tail fiber protein from Escherichia virus G7C (Gp63) and similar proteins from tailed bacteriophages and bacterial prophages. Gp63 is a receptor-binding proteins (RBP) that emanate from the phage particle in the form of fibres for the virus to recognise and bind to their host. It deacetylates surface polysaccharides of E. coli leaving the backbone of the polysaccharide intact. This entry represents domain 3 of Ggp63, which shows structural similarity to a small domain that connects the sialidase domain with the N-terminal particle-binding domain in phage tailspikes with sialidase activity (Pfam:PF12218). It shows two beta-helical rungs capped by an N-terminal alpha-helix oriented perpendicular to the rungs' axis [1].
Bacteriophages recognize and bind to their hosts with the help of receptor-binding proteins (RBPs) that emanate from the phage particle in the form of fibers or tailspikes. RBPs of podovirus G7C tailspikes gp63.1 and gp66 are essential for infection ...
Bacteriophages recognize and bind to their hosts with the help of receptor-binding proteins (RBPs) that emanate from the phage particle in the form of fibers or tailspikes. RBPs of podovirus G7C tailspikes gp63.1 and gp66 are essential for infection of its natural host bacterium E. coli 4s. Gp63.1 and gp66 form a stable complex, in which the N-terminal part of gp66 serves as an attachment site for gp63.1 and anchors the gp63.1-gp66 complex to the G7C tail. The two N-terminal domains show 70% sequence identity to the N-terminal region of the CBA120 phage tailspike 1 (orf210, TSP1) [1]. The N-terminal domain of TSP1 is the virion head binding domain that interfaces with the phage baseplate. The N-terminal domain can be further divided into two subdomains, each beginning with a alpha-helix followed by an anti-parallel beta-sandwich. Subdomain two folds similarly to the chitin binding domain of Chitinase from Bacillus circulans [2].

This entry represents the Tailspike Galactose-binding domain-like domain, also known as domain 5 (d5) of the tailspike receptor-binding protein (RBP) gp63.1 of bacteriophage G7C. This domain is structurally similar to carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) and is involved in substrate binding. Specifically, gp63.1 deacetylates surface polysaccharides of E. coli 4s using the esterase domain located within d5, while other domains mediate the interaction between gp63.1 and gp66 to form a stable complex. CBMs, including d5, are non-catalytic domains found in multidomain polysaccharide depolymerases where they play a role in substrate binding and determine the substrate specificity of the entire enzyme [1].
