Ultrastructure of bacteriophage and bacteriocins

Ultrastructure of Escherichia coli cells infected with bacteriophage R17.

Franklin, Richard M. (Institut de Recherches sur le Cancer, Villejuif, Seine, France), and Nicole Granboulan. Ultrastructure of Escherichia coli cells infected with bacteriophage R17. J. Bacteriol. 91:834-848. 1966-Ultrastructural changes in Escherichia coli cells infected with ribonucleic acid (RNA) bacteriophage R17 were studied under conditions of one-step growth. No morphological alteration...

Replication of bacteriophage ribonucleic acid: analysis of the ultrastructure of the replicative form and the replicative intermediate of bacteriophage R17.

A detailed qualitative and quantitative comparison was made of the ultrastructure of single-stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) from bacteriophage R17 and double-stranded replicative form (RF) and replicative intermediate (RI) from cells infected with this bacteriophage. The nucleic acids were prepared for electron microscopy by the protein monolayer spreading technique of Kleinschmidt. Single-stra...

Bacteriocins, spite and virulence.

There has been much interest in using social evolution theory to predict the damage to a host from parasite infection, termed parasite virulence. Most of this work has focused on how high kinship between the parasites infecting a host can select for more prudent exploitation of the host, leading to a negative relationship between virulence and parasite kinship. However, it has also been shown t...
