Negative stain electron microscopy image of purified P22 portal protein rings. Many “donut-like” structures are
visible, which in most (rarer) side view cases adopt a head-to-head conformation. (b) Negative stain micrograph of gel
filtration purified portal protein in complex with gp4.
Micrographs of the gp1:gp4
complex were compared to gp4-free portal rings, as
shown in Figure 9(a) and (b), respectively. The
majority of gp1:gp4 complexes seen on the micrographs
displayed a preferential orientation on the
grid with the central hole perpendicular to the grid.
In rare instances single complexes and head-tohead
dimers of the gp1:gp4 complex were seen in
side view (see higher magnifications in Figure 9(b))

stably populated gp(1)12:gp(4)6 assembly intermediate. In lane 1 is dodecameric portal protein gp(1)12. The gp(1)12:gp(4)6
assembly intermediate in lanes 2 and 3 migrates on gel as a slightly lower mobility band, clearly distinguishable from fully
saturated decorated gp(1)12:gp(4)12 complex in lane 4 and free dodecameric portal protein gp(1)12 in lane 4. The
intermediates in lanes 2 and 3 were formed by adding six equivalents of gp4 to gp(1)12 and incubating the complex at 30 °C
for 30 s and 30 min, respectively. In lane 4 approximately eight equivalents of gp4 were added, yielding the fully decorated
gp(1)12:gp(4)12 complex and free gp(1)12. (b) Titration of gp4 binding to gp1 at 30 °C. By running the agarose gel at 30 °C
both gp(1)12:gp(4)6 assembly intermediate and fully decorated gp(1)12:gp(4)12 portal protein are visible on the same
titration. The assembly intermediate appears at stoichiometries gp(1):gp(4) equal to 12 (lanes 3−6) and fades away in lane 7,
where >six equivalents of gp4 are present.

Such side views are particularly informative, in that
the dodecameric portal protein without bound gp4
forms a mushroom-shaped structure with a channel

We propose that this portion of the scaffold remains in place during dsDNA packaging, allowing access of the gp4 C terminus to the bottom of the portal. When gp4 binds, the scaffold protein is displaced allowing the final conformational change implied by the position of the gp4-C-terminal polypeptide that is wedged between the capsid and portal.
