Bacteriophage T4 genes sp and 40 apparently are the same.
The bacteriophage T4 spackle gene, which maintains host membrane integrity, mapped at the same position as gene 40 (head morphogenesis). The cloned spackle gene complemented and cross-reactivated a gene 40 mutant. Like the spackle mutant, gene 40 mutants were defective in genetic exclusion. Apparently, genes spackle and 40 are the same gene.
متن کاملThe bacteriophage T4 rapid-lysis genes and their mutational proclivities.
Like most phages with double-stranded DNA, phage T4 exits the infected host cell by a lytic process requiring, at a minimum, an endolysin and a holin. Unlike most phages, T4 can sense superinfection (which signals the depletion of uninfected host cells) and responds by delaying lysis and achieving an order-of-magnitude increase in burst size using a mechanism called lysis inhibition (LIN). T4 r...

He have represented the DNA sequences of bacter iophage T4 genes 9,10 and 11 which encode the s t r u c t u r a l p r o t e i n s of the base p l a t e ( l , 2 ) . This region has a s i n g l e T4 l a t e promoter TATAA&T& sequence (underl ined) loca ted before of gene 9 . The overlapping of terminat ion codone of preceding gene with ATG codone of next gene in t h i s region and a l s o downstr...
متن کاملTranscription and translation of prereplicative bacteriophage T4 genes in vitro.
Bacteriophage T4 DNA was used to direct transcription and translation in vitro in extracts prepared from uninfected Escherichia coli. The radioactive protein products of the cell-free reactions were examined on sodium dodecyl sulfate acrylamide gels. We conclude that the cell-free system prepared from uninfected E. coli has the capacity to synthesize most T4 prereplicative RNAs and proteins. Fu...
متن کاملBacteriophage T4 DNA packaging genes 16 and 17
Genes 16 and 17 of phage T4 encode two proteins, gp (gene product) 16 and gpl7, required to translocate phage T4 DNA into the head (1, 2, 3). We have determined the DNA sequence of these genes from random and restriction T4 fragments cloned into M13 or various plasmids. The two genes overlap (out-offrame) as indicated. The molecular weights of the proteins, deduced from the DNA sequence (18,367...
