Modeling the Architecture of Depolymerase-Containing Receptor Binding Proteins in Klebsiella Phages

Klebsiella pneumoniae carries a thick polysaccharide capsule. This highly variable chemical structure plays an important role in its virulence. Many Klebsiella bacteriophages recognize this capsule with a receptor binding protein (RBP) that contains a depolymerase domain. This domain degrades the ca...
