description: Proteins in this entry may be the encapsulin shell protein in a type 4 A-domain encapsulin
  nanocompartment system. It has been shown that bacterial/archaeal encapsulin-like systems and HK97-type
  viruses share a common ancestor and it is likely that encapsulins have evolved from HK97-type phages
  [[cite:PUB00100782]].
