Bacteriophage T4 belongs to the Myoviridae family and the Caudovirales order because of its complex tail structure with a high number of proteins involved. It infects Escherichia coli bacteria. It is consisting of three parts : a DNA-containing head, a doubles-tubed tail with a contractile outer tail-sheath and a baseplate with short and long tail fibers. | Bacteriophage T4 belongs to the Myoviridae family and the Caudovirales order because of its complex tail structure with a high number of proteins involved.
