The T4 virus consists of an elongated head, which carries the virus' genetic material, and a tail made up of a hexagonal baseplate and six leg-type structures, called long-tail and short-tail fibers.

Protein structures solved by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) or X-ray crystallography often miss the sugar molecules known as glycans that cover large swaths of the proteins’ surfaces. The ...
