Abstract excerpt
The mechanism by which dsDNA is packaged by viruses is not yet understood in any system. Bacteriophage P22 has been a productive system in which to study the molecular genetics of virus particle assembly and DNA packaging. Only five phage encoded proteins, the products of genes 3, 2, 1, 8 and 5, are required for packaging the virus chromosome inside the coat protein shell. We report here the construction of a...
