Mechanism of Host Recognition by the Bacteriophage <i>Cystoviridae</i>
… is a unique family of double stranded RNA bacteriophage that fuses its outer viral membrane with the lipopolysaccharide membrane of its Gram-negative host. In a series of studies, we determined the specifics of <em>Cystoviridae</em> host binding and the requirements of host fusion. The …

Sequence Specific Interaction of R17 Coat Protein With Its Rna Binding Site
The interaction between RNA bacteriophage R17 coat protein and its RNA binding site for translational repression was studied as an example of a sequence-specific RNA-protein interaction. The binding site consists of fewer than 20 contiguous nucleotides which form a small hairpin. The thermodynamic …

Purification and Properties of Bacteriophage f2 Replicase
… concerns the purification and properties of an RNA-dependent ribonucleotide-polymerizing enzyme (RNA replicase) produced during infection of E. coli with the RNA bacteriophage f2. Studies on the RNA replicase of the distantly-related bacteriophage Q3 have established the feasibility of using a …

Microbial contaminant removal and alternative nitrogen removal pathways in denitrifying bioreactors
… and (2) to assess the potential role of alternative N removal pathways, namely anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) and codenitrification for N removal in denitrifying bioreactors. The first part of this thesis focused on the removal of microbial contaminants in denitrifying bioreactors. …

Biochemical and Biological Studies on the Growth of an RNA Containing Bacteriophage
<p>The growth of the RNA-containing bacteriophage f2 has been studied. DNA synthesis appears normal after phage infection. It is possible to dissociate the synthesis of viral RNA from the synthesis of DNA using thymine-less bacteria with fluorinated pyrimidines and Mitomycin C as inhibitors of DNA …
