phage tail protein
This family consists of several tail tube protein gp19 sequences from the T4-like viruses [1,2]. This family also contains bacterial members which suggest lateral transfer of genes. [1]. 3363870. The structure of three bacteriophage T4 genes required for tail-tube assembly. Ishimoto LK, Ishimoto KS, Cascino A, Cipollaro M, Eiserling FA;. Virology 1988;164:81-90. [2]. 2403438.

conserved hypothetical phage tail region protein
This family consists of uncharacterized proteins. All members so far represent bacterial genes found in apparent phage or otherwisely laterally transferred regions of the chromosome. Tentatively identified neighboring proteins tend to be phage tail region proteins. In some species, including Photorhabdus luminescens TTO1, several members of this family may be encoded near each other.
