Abstract excerpt
The assembly and length regulation of the tail tube of bacteriophage T4 requires the function of three proteins: gp29, 48, and 54. Six copies of each protein are found in the completed tail, and the genes for these proteins are adjacent on the T4 genome. Evidence is presented here that gp54 is also a tail tube-associated protein that remains bound to the tail tube after the baseplate is removed by guanidine...
