Total modification of the bacteriophage lambda tail tube major subunit protein with foreign peptides.

Abstract excerpt

The bacteriophage lambda has been shown previously to tolerate a high multiplicity of peptide additions to the C-terminus of the major tail tube subunit protein (gpV, the product of the V gene). However, it was not clear whether all gpV copies within a functional virion could tolerate such modification. Complementation tests with phage bearing either V gene amber mutations or a precisely deleted V gene were used...
