Structural highlights
FunctionDEPOL_BPKN1 Functions as a receptor binding protein (RBP) and probably mediates the attachment to the host capsular exopolysaccharides (Probable). Displays a depolymerase activity that specifically degrades the KN1-type polysaccharides of Klebsiella pneumoniae capsule, which allows the phage to reach the host cell membrane and bind the entry receptor (PubMed:30706654).[1] [2] References
