Abstract excerpt

Transcription of T7 and mutant T3 DNA during infections of F plasmid-containing cells has been analyzed by using Southern hybridization. A transcriptional defect is apparent in these abortively infected cells that is most severe in the class III region of the phage genome. In particular, RNAs tha...
