Properties and structure of a gene 24-controlled T4 giant phage

Journal of Molecular Biology, 1976
Abstract Giant T4 bacteriophage were found by Doermann et al. (1973a) with point mutants in gene 23 and by Cummings et al. (1973) after l -canavanine induction followed by an arginine chase. We now find T4 giant phage with 14 out of 15 tested temperature-sensitive mutants in gene 24 grown at intermediate temperatures between 33 °C and 37 °C.

Comparison of the structural and chemical composition of giant T‐even phage heads

Journal of Supramolecular Structure, 1976
AbstractA study has been made of the structure of the capsids of T4D giant phage produced from mutants in gene 23 and temperature‐sensitive mutants in gene 24, and T4D and T2L giant phage formed by the addition of L‐canavanine followed by an L‐arginine chase in the growth medium.All the giant phage capsids have been shown to be built according to the ...

The crAss-like Phage Group: How Metagenomics Reshaped the Human Virome.

Trends in Microbiology, 2020
Metagenomics is currently the primary means for identifying new viruses. One of the most impactful metagenomic discoveries is that of crAssphage, the most abundant human-associated virus that is found in about 50% of human gut viromes where it can ...

Genomic transfer via membrane vesicle: a strategy of giant phage phiKZ for early infection

Journal of Virology
ABSTRACT During infection, the giant phiKZ phage forms a specialized structure at the center of the host cell called the phage nucleus. This structure is crucial for safeguarding viral DNA against bacterial nucleases and for segregating the transcriptional activities of late genes.

Host Genetic Regulation of Stem Cell–Virus Interactions in Human Health

Bioessays
The interactions between human viruses and human stem cells may differ from those with differentiated cells. These differences may arise through heterogeneous intercellular mechanisms and responses to specific infectious agents, resulting in different ...
