ISOLATION OF A CHLORAMPHENICOL-RESISTANT PROTEIN FROM λ-INFECTED CELLS*

PMCID: PMC223637  PMID: 5256419

Abstract

During infection with bacteriophage ϕX174, a protein, made in the presence of 30 γ chloramphenicol/ml but not made in the presence of concentrations greater than 100 γ/ml, has been shown to be essential for viral DNA replication. A protein with similar chromatographic properties and “chloramphenicol resistance” has now been demonstrated in cells infected with λ bacteriophage.
