Process of infection with bacteriophage phi-X174. XXXIV. Kinetic of the attachment and eclipse steps of the infection.
The products of phiX cistrons II, III, and VII are demonstrated to affect the attachment of the phage to its host Escherichia coli C; therefore, by inference, these cistrons influence, directly or indirectly, the structure of proteins in the virus particle. Two of the mutations which alter attachment kinetics, ts79 in cistron III and h in cistron VII, also affect the electrophoretic mobility of...
متن کاملRequirement 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 کاملGreater vulnerability of the infecting viral strand of replicative-form deoxyribonucleic acid of bacteriophage phi X174.
Four types of phiX-infected cells of Escherichia coli CR, a thymine-requiring strain of E. coli C, were prepared in which the parental replicative-form deoxyribonucleic acid (RF DNA) was labeled with same specific amounts of bromouracil in (i) both strands, (ii) only the infecting viral strand, (iii) only the complementary strand, and (iv) neither strand. The sensitivity of each type of infecte...
متن کاملThe three-dimensional structure of frozen-hydrated bacteriophage phi X174.
The three-dimensional structure of bacteriophage phi X174 (phi X174) was determined to approximately 2.6 nm resolution from images of frozen-hydrated 114 S particles. The outer surface of phi X174 is characterized by several prominent features: (i) 12 mushroom-shaped caps (approximately 7.1 nm wide x 3.8 nm high) are situated at each of the vertices of the icosahedral virion and extend to a max...
متن کاملAntibody responses to bacteriophage phi X174 in patients with adenosine deaminase deficiency.
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency and its biochemical consequences cause severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Treatment strategies, designed to correct the biochemical abnormalities, include transplantation of matched bone marrow or haploidentical bone marrow stem cells, repeated partial exchange transfusions with frozen irradiated human red blood cells (RBC), or weekly injection of poly...
