Chaperone responsible for attachment of long tail fibers to virus particle. During phage assembly, twelve fibritin molecules attach to the phage neck via gp13: six molecules forming the collar and six molecules forming the whiskers. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa2-487 from enterobacteria phage T4 wac, fused to His-SUMO-Tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
