A Common Fold for the Receptor Binding Domains of Lactococcal Phages? The Crystal Structure of the Head Domain of Phage bIL170

Overview

Lactococcus lactis, a gram-positive bacterium widely used by the dairy, industry, is subject to lytic phage infections. In the first step of, infection, phages recognize the host saccharidic receptor using their, receptor binding protein (RBP). Here, we report the 2.30-A-resolution, crystal structure of the RBP head domain from phage bIL170. The structure, of the head monomer is remarkably close to those of other lactococcal, phages, p2 and TP901-1, despite any sequence identity with them. The, knowledge of the three-dimensional structures of three RBPs gives a better, insight into the module exchanges which have occurred among phages.
