- Classification of bacterial viruses: Characterization of the T5 species and of the T2, C16 species. Adams, M.H. (1952). <None Specified> 64:387-396. Certain criteria for the classification of bacterial viruses have been applied to the definitoin of the T5 species and of the T2, C16 species of bacterial viruses. The application of these criteria has led to the inclusion of phage strains T5, PB, 29 alpha, and BG3 in the T5 species. It has also led to the conclusion that phage strain C16, the strain of Burnet's serological group 11 of the coli-dysentary phages, is a member of the same species as strains T2, T4, and T6.

- The intracellular growth of bacteriophages. I. Liberation of intracellular bacteriophage T4 by premature lysis with another phage or with cyanide. Doermann, A.H. (1952). J. Gen. Physiol. 35:645-656. A method is described for liberating and estimating intracellular bacteriophage at any stage during the latent period by arresting phage growth and inducing premature lysis of the infected cells. This is brought about by placting the infected bacteria into the growth medium supplemented with 0.01 M cyanide and with a high titer T6 lysate. It was found in some of the later experiments that the T6 lysate is essentially only during the first half of the latent period. Cyanide alone will induce lysis during the latter part of the latent period. ¶ Using this method on T4-infected bacteria it was found that during the first half of the latent period no phage particles, not even those originally infecting the bacteria, are recovered. This result is in agreement with the gradually emerging concept that a profound alteration of the infecting phag particle takes place before reproduction ensues. During the second half of the latent period mature phage is found to accumulate within the bacteria at a rate which is parallel to the approximately linear increase of intracellular DNA in this system. However, the phage production lags several minutes behind DNA production. ¶ When 5-methyltryptophan replaced cyanide as the metabolic inhibitor, similar results were obtained. The curves were, however, displaced several minutes to the left on the time axis. ¶ The results are compared with Latarjey's (J. Gen. Physiol., 1948, 31, 529) data on x-radiation of infected bacteria and with Foster's data (J. Bact., 1948, 56, 795) concerning the effect of proflavine of infected bacteria. Essential agreement with both apparent. [TOP OF PAGE]
