OUTLIER. “Presently, HK97 is the only known virus to display covalent chainmail formed with isopeptide crosslinks and thus constitutes its own group. The use of a single protein in HK97 to form a stable structure represents a highly optimized strategy, perhaps resulting from evolutionary selection. As such, it may represent a more recent emergence of complexes with the HK97-like fold.”
