Figure 1

The DNA packaging pathway of the related bacteriophages, T3 and T7. The pathway indicated by solid arrows is the deduced in vivo DNA packaging pathway. The pathways indicated by the dashed arrows are proposed abortive branches that produce the various particles that have been detected, isolated and characterized.11 A legend for protein components and DNA is at the top. The HE ipDNA-capsid component of the figure is the contribution of the current study.
