P132 makes the proximal part and pb8 the distal part that binds to the host cell surface. The L-shaped long tail fibers are attached to a collar structure at the junction between the tail tube and the conical tail tip. Each fiber consists of a thin proximal rod of about 30 nm connected by a hinge to a thicker distal part of about 47 nm.<ref>PMID:24198424</ref> <ref>PMID:7045389</ref> | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FIBL_BPT5 FIBL_BPT5]] Assembles together with p132 to form the three L-shaped long tail fibers that recognize the host lipopolysaccharides that serve as adhesion receptor for virus entry.

| + | Bacteriophage T5, a Siphovirus belonging to the order Caudovirales, has a flexible, three-fold symmetric tail, to which three L-shaped fibres are attached. These fibres recognize oligo-mannose units on the bacterial cell surface prior to infection and are composed of homotrimers of the pb1 protein. Pb1 has 1396 amino acids, of which the carboxy-terminal 133 residues form a trimeric intra-molecular chaperone that is auto-proteolyzed after correct folding. The structure of a trimer of residues 970-1263 was determined by single anomalous dispersion phasing using incorporated selenomethionine residues and refined at 2.3 A resolution using crystals grown from native, methionine-containing, protein. The protein inhibits phage infection by competition. The phage-distal receptor-binding domain resembles a bullet, with the walls formed by partially intertwined beta-sheets, conferring stability to the structure. The fold of the domain is novel and the topology unique to the pb1 structure. A site-directed mutant (Ser1264 to Ala), in which auto-proteolysis is impeded, was also produced, crystallized and its 2.5 A structure solved by molecular replacement. The additional chaperone domain (residues 1263-1396) consists of a central trimeric alpha-helical coiled-coil flanked by a mixed alpha-beta domain. Three long beta-hairpin tentacles, one from each chaperone monomer, extend into long curved grooves of the bullet-shaped domain. The chaperone-containing mutant did not inhibit infection by competition. | ||
