"Giant" phages have genomes of 200 kbp, confined in correspondingly large capsids whose assembly and maturation are still poorly understood. Nevertheless, the first assembly product is likely to be, as in other tailed phages, a procapsid that subsequently matures and packages the DNA. The associated transformations include the cleavage of many proteins by the phage-encoded protease, as well as the thinning and angularization of the capsid. We exploited an amber mutation in the viral protease gene of the Salmonella giant phage SP
