DESCRIPTION

Also known as G5P_BPF1, V. Binds to DNA in a highly cooperative manner without pronounced sequence specificity. During synthesis of the single-stranded (progeny) viral DNA, prevents the conversion into the double-stranded replicative form. G5P is displaced by the capsid protein G8P during phage assembly on the inner bacterial membrane (By similarity). Homodimer.
