Fig. 5: Cryo-EM structure of the YSD1 tail.
From: The architecture and stabilisation of flagellotropic tailed bacteriophages
a Surface representation of the cryo-EM helical reconstruction of the tail tube. The colour gradient represents the local resolution of the map. Scale bar = 10 nm. b Stereo diagram showing the electron density map and de novo model of the tail protein. c The tail tube protein YSD1_22 is composed of three structural domains and an extended β-hairpin loop (β-HP). Domains 1 and 2 were modelled in the cryo-EM density, while only weak density was present for domain 3 (D1-3; cf. Supplementary Fig. 8).
