4bil
From Proteopedia
Threading model of the T7 large terminase within the gp8gp19 complex
Function
[VDMB_BPT7] During the growth of this phage, DNA is synthesized as concatemers. During DNA packaging mature monomers are cut from the concatemers. Gp19 is a nonspecific endonuclease that cause double stranded breaks. Its activity is suppressible by either ATP or gp18.
About this Structure
4bil is a 5 chain structure with sequence from Enterobacteria phage t7. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
