Phage T1-mediated transduction of a plasmid containing the T1 pac site.

Abstract:

:The T1 pac site has been cloned into a plasmid vector. This recombinant plasmid was tested for T1-mediated transduction efficiency in comparison with a plasmid containing the phage lambda T1-pac-like site esp-lambda, plasmids containing T1 sequences other than the pac site, and plasmids containing neither T1 sequences nor known pac sites. The data obtained indicate that there are at least two distinct mechanisms of T1-mediated plasmid transduction. One requires the presence of any T1 sequence on the plasmid and probably takes place via cointegrate formation with the homologous region of an infecting T1 genome. The other is specifically dependent on the presence of a pac site on the plasmid. Plasmids are packaged as head-to-tail multimers that have one heterogeneous molecular end and the other terminated at pac, and the direction of packaging with respect to the pac site is the same for plasmids as for T1. Possible roles of pac in plasmid packaging and their implications with regard to the packaging of phage DNA are discussed.
