Complete nucleotide sequence of the bacteriophage K1F tail gene encoding endo-N-acylneuraminidase (endo-N) and comparison to an endo-N homolog in bacteriophage PK1E.

Endo-N-acylneuraminidase (endo-N) is a phage-encoded depolymerase that degrades the alpha (2-8)-linked polysialic acid chains of K1 serotypes of Escherichia coli and vertebrate neural cell adhesion molecules. We have determined the DNA sequence of the bacteriophage K1F tail protein structural gene,...
