This page is currently under construction, and much of the information is currently just a placeholder- it may not apply to PRD1 at all.


Bacteriophage PRD1 is a member of the Tectiviridae family[1] and is closely related to the other lipid-containing phages PR3, PR4, PR5, and L17[2]. It is a plasmid-dependent phage that has been shown to infect a variety of gram-negative hosts, including Escherichia coli, with the requirement that hosts contain incompatibility group plasmids P, W, or N[3]. Notably, PRD1 has 110 bp inverted terminal repeats[4] and a covalently bound terminal protein on the 5' ends[5] of the 14,927bp genome.

The full sequence is available from NCBI as NCBI Reference Sequence: NC_001421.2


Morphology

Phage PRD1, like the other Tectiviridae, has an inflexible icosahedral protein structure surrounding a lipid membrane[1]. The linear dsDNA is contained inside this lipid-protein vesicle[6]. The phage has a molecular mass of about 66x106 Da; by weight it is 15% DNA, 15% lipid, and the remaining weight is due to protein content[7]. The phage capsid is about 65.5 nm, measured as the diameter between two parallel edges, with a maximum diameter of 69.8nm when measured between vertices[1].

The rigid coat is comprised mainly of the 43.1 kDa[8] protein P3, which forms 240 trimeric units with 6-fold symmetry[9] arranged in β-sheets[10]. A single face of the icosahedron contains 12 copies of the trimeric P3 in a pseudo T=25 lattice[1]. The capsid also contains the 34.3 kDa [8]P5 as the minor coat protein[9], and pentamers of the 13.7kDa P31 form the vertices[11]. The major and minor proteins contribute to a spike structure at the 12 vertices[11][12]. With P31, the minor coat protein P5 forms an adaptor complex and anchors P2 to form the spike[12]. Protein P2 is required for adsorption to the host, and likely only exists as a single monomer at the distal end of the spike[13][12].


One study has shown the viral capsid can possess a membranous tail 140 Å in diameter that does not seem to be necessary for infection. [11]



The membrane contains host lipids[1] as well as P20, P22[14]

PRD1 has a linear, 14927 bp genome of DNA. There are

There are 11 genes encoded on the genome; two are overlapping in-frame genes. Five of the encoded proteins make up the viron, three are needed for synthesis and the rest are for assembly. [15] The genes are generally referred to by Roman numerals I-XI as listed on the Phage f1 page. Genes are in the order II (X), V, VII, IX, VIII, III, VI, I (XI), IV, intergenic region (IG or IGR). [1] The IGR contains the packing signal (PS) as well as sequences that dictate termination, nicking for replication, and the binding of protein II and IHF. [1]
