Abstract excerpt
We have characterized three temperate bacteriophages of pneumococcus (HB-3, HB-623, and HB-746). Although all the phages belong to the same family, the polypeptide composition of the virions and the DNA restriction endonuclease analysis of their DNAs revealed differences among the three phages. The genomes of these bacteriophages have been isolated as DNA-protein complexes. The protein is specifically associated...
