Bacteriophage HK97 structure: wholesale covalent cross-linking between the major head shell subunits.

Journal of virology - 1 Jun 1991

Popa M P, McKelvey T A, Hempel J, Hendrix R W

Abstract excerpt

We describe initial genetic and structural characterizations of HK97, a temperate bacteriophage of Escherichia coli. We isolated 28 amber mutants, characterized them with respect to what phage-related structures they make, and mapped many of them to restriction fragments of genomic DNA. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of HK97 virions revealed nine different protein species plus a...
