用携带R因子222的鼠伤寒沙门氏菌LT-2株作为载体,用P22噬菌体转化LT-2菌株产生的特异性RP 22溶原,诱导产生四环素抗性(tetR)的高频转导(HFT)溶菌产物。HFT裂解物含有缺陷P22颗粒,称为P22 Tc-10,其不能生长或溶原化(即,transtransducetR)。然而,两个有缺陷的P22 Tc-10颗粒可以彼此协作以用于生长或用于溶原性(即,tetR的转导),在HFT裂解物中可以发现“野生型”噬菌体,其可以在单次感染时生长并且不再转导tetR,其频率为5 × 10− 5 PFU/颗粒。这些“野生型”的DNA中有5%也是整合缺陷的。在高感染复数下,用HFT裂解物制备的tetR转导子似乎类似于P22 Tc-10溶原细胞(即,为了解释这些观察结果,提出了一个模型,其中fortetRare基因插入P22 Tc-10前噬菌体中完整的P22基因组中。这样的插入的后果进行了讨论,关于噬菌体P22 DNA的结构和成功的DNA复制,噬菌体生长和溶原化的拓扑要求。
A high-frequency-transducing (HFT) lysate for tetracycline resistance (tetR) was obtained by inducing an unusualtetRP22 lysogen which had been made by transducingSalmonclla typhimuriumLT-2 totetRwith P22 phage grown on an LT-2 strain carrying the R factor 222. The HFT lystate contains defective P22 particles, called P22 Tc-10, which cannot grow or lysogenize (i.e., transducetetR) upon single infection. However, two defective P22 Tc-10 particles can cooperate with each other for growth or for lysogeny (i.e., transduction oftetR), “Wild-type” phages which can grow on single infection and which no longer transducetetRcan be found at a frequency of 5 × 10−5PFU/particle in the HFT lysate. Five percent of these “wild-type” phages are also integration deficient. At high multiplicities of infection thetetRtransductants made with an HFT lysate appear to be similar to a P22 Tc-10 lysogen (i.e., they are immune to P22 and yield HFT lysates upon induction); at low multiplicities of infection, many of thetetRtransductants aretetRP22 prophage deletions.To account for these observations, a model is proposed in which the genes fortetRare inserted into the intact P22 genome in the P22 Tc-10 prophage. The consequences of such an insertion are discussed with regard to the structure of phage P22 DNA and the topological requirements for successful DNA replication, phage growth, and lysogenization.
