1.E.8.1.1









Lysis protein, T, of 218 aas and 1 TMS. T holin activity is regulated by the largely periplasmic anti-holin RI (P13304) and the cytoplasmic antiholin R3 (P17309) which act synergistically (Chen and Young 2016). RI is degraded by DegP (Tran et al., 2007).  Mutations in all 3 topological domains if RI (the N-terminal cytoplasmic domain, the single TMS, and the C-terminal periplasmic domain) can abrogate holin function (Moussa et al. 2014).  The short cytoplasmic region of phage T4 holin is essential for the transition from impermeable membrane protein complexes to permeable pores (Schwarzkopf et al. 2025).

1.E.8.1.6









Holin of 240 aas and 2 N-terminal TMSs. It interacts (via its C-terminus) with antiholin (via its C-terminus); this interaction blocks the holin homomultimerization and delays host cell lysis. It also interacts (via its N-terminus) with the lysis inhibition accessory protein rIII; this interaction stabilizes the holin-antiholin complex thereby resulting in a robust block of the hole formation.
