Figure 10 shows that gene D protein, known to be present in the phage head, does not affect head size, suggesting it provides head stability instead. This is verified in Figure 11, which shows that gene D mutants are more susceptible to EDTA inactivation through the rupturing of the phage head. Protein D is likely a decorator protein as it stabilizes the head but is not essential in the gene D mutants isolated (Figure 2). |
