Ndd, the Bacteriophage T4 Protein That Disrupts the Escherichia coli Nucleoid, Has a DNA Binding Activity

Early in a bacteriophage T4 infection, the phage ndd gene causes the rapid destruction of the structure of the Escherichia coli nucleoid. Even at very low levels, the Ndd protein is extremely toxic to cells. In uninfected E. coli, overexpression of the cloned ndd gene induces disruption of the nucle...
