Abstract

A novel bacteriophage whose DNA molecule has endonuclease-sensitivity only in the DNA region carrying genetic information for the production of phage coat proteins can be obtained by isolating an endonuclease-resistant mutant from one of the lambdoid bacteriophages and mating the resulting bacteriophage with a lambdoid phage having endonuclease-sensitivity in the DNA region carrying genetic information for the production of coat proteins.
