  17. The process of infection with bacteriophage fX174. Hutchison, C.A., Sinsheimer, R.L. (1966). J. Mol. Biol. 18:429-447. The ability of conditional lethhal mutants of phage fX174 to nduce [sic] host cell lysis during infection under restrictive conditions has been studied. We have found amber (am) and temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants which present a variety of alterations in the normal lytic process. In particular, there is a class of am mutants which do not produce cell lysis but otherwise replicate normally in the restrictive host. These mutants constitute a single complementation group. The existence of these mutants implicates a phage-coded protein in the lytic process. This protein is not an essential structural component of the phage, since normal phage particles are produced in the absence of lysis. ¶ The growth of a particular mutant of this type, fX am3, in the restrictive host, has been studied in detail. Phage maturation starts at approximately the same time and at the same rate as in a fX wild type (wt) infection. Burst sizes of 2 to 3 x 103 phage per cell are obtained. This is about ten times the normal fX wt phage yield. Only 1 to 2% of the phage are released spontaneously. The rest remain intracellular until released by artificial lysis. The turbidity of an infected culture continues to rise after infection. This effect primarily represents elongation of the infected cells, without increase in cell number. Cells infected by fX am3 are not able to form a colony and do not undergo more than a single division. ¶ We have used fX am3 to study temporal exclusion in fX infection under conditions that are not complicated by lysis of the infected cells. fX wt is excluded by prior infection with fX am3. The superinfecting phage is blocked at a stage prior to synthesis of the molecule of the parental replicative form; its DNA remains an intact (infective) single strand. ¶ We have also used fX am3 to study the effect of addition of chloramphenicol at various times during infection upon subsequent viral DNA synthesis. If chloramphenicol is added before initiation of progeny single-stranded DNA synthesis, the normal transition from replication of replicative form to single-stranded DNA formation does not occur; replication of the replicative form continues for at least 40 minutes. If chloramphenicol is added after the initiation of single-stranded DNA synthesis, such synthesis continues, at a lesser rate than normal, for 20 to 25 minutes; synthesis of replicative form is resumed for at least 40 to 50 minutes and its concentration may reach a level several-fold that normally observed.
