Multiple initiation of bacteriophage T4 DNA replication: delaying effect of bromodeoxyuridine.
Effects of bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) substitutions in phage T4 DNA on the initial stages of DNA replication were investigated. Electron microscope studies of partially replicated, light (thymidine-containing) T4 DNA revealed the presence of multiple loops and forks. These DNA preparations had no BUdR in either parental or newly synthesized DNA, and the observations thus show that multiple initia...
متن کاملDNA helicase requirements for DNA replication during bacteriophage T4 infection.
The lytic bacteriophage T4 uses multiple mechanisms to initiate the replication of its DNA. Initiation occurs predominantly at replication origins at early times of infection, but there is a switch to genetic recombination-dependent initiation at late times of infection. The T4 insertion-substitution system was used to create a deletion in the T4 dda gene, which encodes a 5'-3' DNA helicase tha...
متن کاملEffects of UV irradiation on the fate of 5-bromodeoxyuridine-substituted bacteriophage T4 DNA.
We have carried out a series of experiments designed to characterize the impact of UV irradiation (260 nm) on 5-bromodeoxyuridine-labeled (heavy) T4 bacteriophage, both before and after infection of Escherichia coli. In many respects, these effects differ greatly from those previously described for non-density-labeled (light) phage. Moreover, our results have led us to propose a model for a nov...
متن کاملCoordinated DNA Replication by the Bacteriophage T4 Replisome
The T4 bacteriophage encodes eight proteins, which are sufficient to carry out coordinated leading and lagging strand DNA synthesis. These purified proteins have been used to reconstitute DNA synthesis in vitro and are a well-characterized model system. Recent work on the T4 replisome has yielded more detailed insight into the dynamics and coordination of proteins at the replication fork. Since...
متن کاملRescue of DNA replication and bacteriophage production after infection with T4 DNA ligase mutants.
By preventing phage DNA synthesis during a critical period, conditions have been found under which DNA replication and phage production are rescued after infection with T4 DNA ligase mutants.
