M13 bacteriophage gIII G378S

This part is the protein III of the M13 bacteriophage with one mutation: G378S.

Usage and Biology

Protein III is the minor coat protein (CoaA) of the M13 bacteriophage [Knezevic et al., 2021]. It is located on the end of the M13 filament alongside the protein VI, while at the oposite end are located proteins VII and VIII (Figure 1).

The C-terminus of pritein III is involved in terminating phage assembly, while its N-terminus binds to the bacterial pili to initiate infection.

The mutation G378S is present in the VCSM13 helper phage (GenBank AY598820), in the M13KO7 helper phage we recovered from the tube provided by New England Biolabs (BBa_K5061000), but not in the M13 Phage (GenBank V00604).
