Requirement of protein synthesis for bacteriophage phi X174 superinfection exclusion.
Within 5 to 10 min at 37 C, bacteria infected by bacteriophage phiX174 acquire the ability to exclude superinfecting phiX particles from reproducing themselves. The superinfecting phage are blocked at a stage prior to synthesis of the parental replicative form molecule; the superinfecting deoxyribonucleic acid remains as intact (infective) single strands. Establishment of superinfection exclusi...

متن کاملInteraction of bacteriophage N1 with cell walls of Micrococcus lysodeikticus.
Bacteriophage N1 does not irreversibly adsorb to cell walls isolated from its host Micrococcus lysodeikticus strain 1 (ML-1). ML-1 walls do bind the virus in a specific but completely reversibly union. Electron microscopic examination of OsO(4)-treated mixtures of phage and walls revealed phage bound to wall fragments by their tail tips, suggesting that reversible phage attachment to walls invo...
متن کاملDislocation-mediated growth of bacterial cell walls.
Recent experiments have illuminated a remarkable growth mechanism of rod-shaped bacteria: proteins associated with cell wall extension move at constant velocity in circles oriented approximately along the cell circumference [Garner EC, et al., (2011) Science 333:222-225], [Domínguez-Escobar J, et al. (2011) Science 333:225-228], [van Teeffelen S, et al. (2011) PNAS 108:15822-15827]. We view the...
متن کاملSalt-induced contraction of bacterial cell walls.
Intact Bacillus megaterium cells were found to contract as much as 26% in terms of dextran-impermeable volume when transferred from water to unbuffered, non-plasmolyzing NaCl solutions. This shrinkage appeared to be primarily due to electrostatic wall contraction rather than to any osmotic response of the cells. A variety of salts (but not sucrose) added to water suspensions of isolated cell wa...
