Genetic analysis of bacteriophage P22 lysozyme structure.
The suppression patterns of 11 phage P22 mutants bearing different amber mutations in the gene encoding lysozyme (19) were determined on six different amber suppressor strains. Of the 60 resulting single amino acid substitutions, 18 resulted in defects in lysozyme activity at 30 degrees; an additional seven were defective at 40 degrees. Revertants were isolated on the "missuppressing" hosts fol...
متن کاملA Genetic and Structural Analysis of P22 Lysozyme: A Thesis
GENETIC AND STRUCTURAL ANAYLYSIS OF P22 LYSOZYME P22 lysozyme , encoded by gene 19, is an essential phage protein responsible for hydrolyzing the bacterial cell wall during lytic infection. P22 lysozyme is related to T4 lysozyme in its mode of action, substrate specificities , and in its structure. Gene 19 was located on the phage genome , subcloned and then sequenced. Lysozyme was produced in ...
متن کاملVirulent mutants of bacteriophage p22.I. Isolation and genetic analysis.
Mutants of phage P22 which form plaques on a P22 lysogen have been isolated. These virulent mutants have been classified into three groups. (i) VirA mutants arise spontaneously in wild-type stocks and form very small turbid plaques on a P22 lysogen. The single mutation responsible for VirA virulence maps near the mnt locus, one of the immunity regions of phage P22. (ii) VirB mutants do not aris...
متن کاملEcoRI analysis of bacteriophage P22 DNA packaging.
Bacteriophage P22 linear DNA molecules are a set of circularly permuted sequences with ends located in a limited region of the physical map. This mature form of the viral chromosome is cut in headful lengths from a concatemeric precursor during DNA encapsulation. Packaging of P22 DNA begins at a specific site, which we have termed pat, and then proceeds sequentially to cut lengths of DNA slight...
متن کاملStructure and functions of the bacteriophage P22 tail protein.
The product of gene 9 (gp9) of Salmonella typhimurium bacteriophage P22 is a multifunctional structural protein. This protein is both a specific glycosidase which imparts the adsorption characteristics of the phage for its host and a protein which participates in a specific assembly reaction during phage morphogenesis. We have begun a detailed biochemical and genetic analysis of this gene produ...
