Figure 1
Schematic organization of bacteriophage PRD1. PRD1 has an icosahedral protein coat with facets made with 240 copies of the P3 trimer. The vertices contain the pentameric protein P31 in association with a spike composed of P5 and the host-recognition protein P2. The protein coat completely surrounds a lipid membrane, which closely follows the protein capsid and encloses a single copy of linear dsDNA with terminal proteins covalently attached to its 5′ ends.
