Pf1 is a filamentous, single‐stranded DNA virus that hasPseudomas aeruginosa(strain K) as host. It is the longest of the filamentous bacterial viruses, and the DNA within it has the most extended conformation known. Pfl virus cannot infectEscherichia coli(strain MM294) cells, but when these cells are transfected with the double‐stranded replicative form of Pt1 DNA (RF DNA, 7.35 kb), they export low levels of infectious particles that create plaques on lawns ofP. aeruginosa.Several different structural species, at least two of which are infectious, are exported. One of them, called Epf1, has virtually the same structure as Pf1, but the amount of Epf1 exported byE. coliis 104lower than the amount of Pf1 exported byP. aeruginosa.The results imply that host factors affect not only the efficiency of virus assembly and export, but also the actual structures of the species exported.
