Abstract excerpt

The generalized transducing bacteriophage of Salmonella typhimurium, P22, can transduce plasmids in addition to chromosomal markers. Previous studies have concentrated on transduction of pBR322 by P22 and P22HT, the high transducing mutant of P22. This study investigates the mechanism of P22HT tr...
