The formation of particles resembling PBSX phages was induced by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide in a Marburg strain of Bacillus subtilis. All particles were homogeneous in their morphology. Physical and biological analyses revealed that the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) carried by these particles are fragments of host-cell DNA. The contour length of the DNA is 4.25 mum, corresponding to a molecular weight of 8.1 x 10(6) daltons.
在枯草芽孢杆菌的马尔堡菌株中,4-硝基喹啉-1-氧化物诱导形成了类似PBSX噬菌体的颗粒。所有颗粒在形态上均一。物理和生物学分析表明,这些颗粒携带的脱氧核糖核酸(DNA)是宿主细胞DNA的片段。DNA的轮廓长度为4.25微米,对应分子量为8.1×10⁶道尔顿。
