Bioinformatic characterization of endolysins and holin-like membrane proteins in the lysis cassette of phages that infect Gordonia rubripertincta.
Holins are bacteriophage-encoded transmembrane proteins that function to control the timing of bacterial lysis event, assist with the destabilization of the membrane proton motive force and in some models, generate large "pores" in the cell membrane to allow the exit of the phage-encoded e...
