A COAT PROTEIN FROM BACTERIOPHAGE FD .3. SPECIFICITY OF PROTEIN-DNA ASSOCIATION IN VIVO

[摘要] Phage fd and phage [PHI]X174 multiply without mutual interference in a common host cell. About 3% of the phage progeny contain [PHI]X174 DNA with an fd protein coat and about 0.03% of the progeny contain fd DNA with a [PHI]X174 protein coat. There is thus only a limited specificity of fd protein-DNA association in vivo.
