Atomic structures of T7 tail proteins. a Superposition of the gp8open as in the tail complex (orchid purple) and gp8closed (blue) portal monomers. Distances and angles of the moving regions are indicated. b Ribbon representation of gp11 adaptor protein monomer. The different domains are colored and labeled. c Ribbon representation of gp12 nozzle protein monomer. The different domains are colored and labeled
