Temporal Stability and Genetic Diversity of 48-Year-Old T-Series Phages
T-series phages have been model organisms for molecular biology since the 1940s. Given that these phages have been stocked, distributed, and propagated for decades across the globe, there exists the potential for genetic drift to accumulate between ...

Transcription Units in Bacteriophage T4 [PDF]
We have investigated the possibility of assigning genes of T4 bacteriophage to their units of transcription (scriptons) by studying gene expression from UV-irradiated DNA templates. Since RNA chains are prematurely terminated on UV-irradiated DNA templates and since the promotor distal part of the RNA chain is deleted, the expression of any gene is ...

Ultrashort Peptides for the Self‐Assembly of an Antiviral Coating
Antiviral compounds are important for generating sterile surfaces. Here, two extremely short peptides, DOPA‐Phe‐NH2 and DOPA‐Phe(4F)‐NH2 that can self‐assemble into spherical nanoparticles with antiviral activity are presented.

MISREPAIR MUTAGENESIS IN BACTERIOPHAGE T4 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The T4 mutations px, y and 1206 inactivate an error-prone recombination-like repair system, reducing or abolishing mutagenesis by UV irradiation, MMS, and white light irradiation in the presence of the photosensitizer 8MOP. Both px and y increase some spontaneous mutation rates and slightly enhance proflavin mutagenesis; neither

In order to control Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum, a novel virulent bacteriophage PM2 was isolated. Bacteriophage PM2 can infect 48% of P. carotovorum subsp. carotovorum and 78% of P. carotovorum subsp.

Structure and assembly of bacteriophage T4 head
The bacteriophage T4 capsid is an elongated icosahedron, 120 nm long and 86 nm wide, and is built with three essential proteins; gp23*, which forms the hexagonal capsid lattice, gp24*, which forms pentamers at eleven of the twelve vertices, and gp20 ...

Coordinated 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 ...

Wild-type or engineered bacteriophages have been reported as therapeutic agents in the treatment of several types of diseases, including cancer. They might be used either as naked phages or as carriers of antitumor molecules.
