Genes 1.2 and 10 of bacteriophages T3 and T7 determine the permeability lesions observed in infected cells of Escherichia coli expressing the F plasmid gene pifA.

Infections of F plasmid-containing strains of Escherichia coli by bacteriophage T7 result in membrane damage that allows nucleotides to exude from the infected cell into the culture medium. Only pifA of the F pif operon is necessary for "leakiness" of the T7-infected cell. Expression of ei...
