—Bacteriophage T4 DNA, when added to a ribonucleic acid- and protein-synthesizing system from uninfectedEscherichia coli, directed thein vitrosynthesis of virus-specific glucosyl transferases.The T4-specific α- and β-glucosyl transferases are synthesizedin vivoearly after infection, and function to glucosylate the hydroxymethylcytosine residues of phage DNA. Thein vitroglucosyl transferase synthesis was dependent upon transcription of T4 DNA, as well as upon protein synthesis. DNA from T4 mutants unable to induce glucosyl transerases failed to induce enzyme formationin vitro, although protein synthesis was unimpaired.
