DESCRIPTION

Also known as CAPSD_BPPF1, VIII. Self assembles to form a helical capsid wrapping up the viral genomic DNA. The capsid displays a filamentous structure with a length of 760-1950 nm and a width of 6-8 nm. The virion assembly and budding take place at the host inner membrane (By similarity). Homomultimerizes. There are several thousands of this protein in the phage capsid (By similarity).
