F‐Type Pyocin Versus Phage λ Tail: Conserved Hub, Divergent Fibers
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Near‐atomic cryo‐EM structures of a Gram‐negative F‐type pyocin reveal a conserved tail tip architecture shared with bacteriophage λ together with a previously unrecognized side‐fiber attachment mode. These findings provide new insight into tailocin assembly and host recognition and establish a structural framework for engineering precision ...
