| PF08967 | Putative type 4B encapsulin shell protein | domain |
Proteins in this entry may be the encapsulin shell protein in a type 4 A-domain encapsulin nanocompartment system. It has been shown that bacterial/archaeal encapsulin-like systems and HK97-type viruses share a common ancestor and it is likely that encapsulins have evolved from HK97-type phages [1].
