Description
This gene is part of the bacteriophage M13 genome. It encodes a protein that is important for phage maturation. The protein remains in the host cytoplasm to interact with the product of gI and the OM pore (product of gIV) through which the phage ssDNA is threaded as the phage matures. GeneX protein is identical to the C-terminal portion of the gIprotein since gXprotien is normally encoded through an internal initiation of translation from the gI transcript.
Notes
need to unstuff from inside gI
