The In Situ Structure of T-Series T1 Reveals a Conserved Lambda-Like Tail Tip

The In Situ Structure of T-Series T1 Reveals a Conserved Lambda-Like Tail Tip

It is estimated that over 60% of known tailed phages are siphophages, which are characterized by a long, flexible, and non-contractile tail. Nevertheless, entire high-resolution structures of siphophages remain scarce. Using cryo-EM, we resolved the structures of T-series siphophage T1, encompassing...
