Function
FIBL2_BPT5 Assembles together with pb1 to form the three L-shaped long tail fibers and probably the 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.[1]
