Abstract excerpt
The penetration of bacteriophage T7 DNA into F plasmid-containing Escherichia coli cells was determined by measuring Dam methylation of the entering genome. T7 strains that cannot productively infect F-containing cells fail to completely translocate their DNA into the cell before the infection ab...
