DESCRIPTION

Also known as PORTL_BP234, P23p86. Forms the portal vertex of the capsid (By similarity). This portal plays critical roles in head assembly, genome packaging, neck/tail attachment, and genome ejection (By similarity). The portal protein multimerizes as a single ring-shaped homododecamer arranged around a central channel (By similarity). Forms the portal vertex of the capsid. This portal plays critical roles in head assembly, genome packaging, neck/tail attachment, and genome ejection (By similarity). Homododecamer (By similarity). Interacts with the capsid protein (By similarity). Interacts with the terminase large subunit; this interaction allows the packaging of viral DNA (By similarity).
