Figure 1

Structure of bacteriophage T4. (A) Schematic representation; CryoEM-derived model of the phage particle prior to (B) and upon (C) host cell attachment. Tail fibers are disordered in the cryoEM structures, as they represent the average of many particles each having the fibers in a slightly different conformation.
