Structures of T7 bacteriophage portal and tail suggest a viral DNA retention and ejection mechanism
Double-stranded DNA bacteriophages package their genome at high pressure inside a procapsid through the portal, an oligomeric ring protein located at a unique capsid vertex. Once the DNA has been packaged, the tail components assemble on the portal to render the mature infective virion. The tail tig...
