What type of disease does the t4 virus cause?
This type of virus is a bacteriophage. It attacks bacteria. The T4 bacteriophage attacks E. coli.
Which viruses inject their DNA?
Bacteriophage T4 virus
Is T4 bacteriophage a DNA or RNA virus?
T4 bacteriophage is a DNA virus. It infects bacteria by injecting its DNA into the host cell and hijacking the cell's machinery to replicate its genetic material.
What is the best known bacteriophage and what virus does it attack?
Bacteriophages ARE viruses that attack bacteria, making this question invalid. But if they meant to say "what bacteria does it attack?" then I would say T4 and E. Coli
What has the author Woo-Kul Lee written?
Woo-Kul Lee has written: 'Kinetic modeling of the adsorption of structural stability mutants of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme at solid-water interfaces' -- subject(s): Bacteriophage T4, Absorption and adsorption, Lysozyme
What point in the reproductive cycle of the T4 bacteriophage is host cell infection irreversible?
Once the viral DNA is duplicated in the cell.
Is a T4 bacteriophage virus living or non living?
Bacteriophage viruses are nonliving. They are DNA or RNA encapsulated in a protein coated capsule with recognition sites to bind to specific target sites on bacteria and insert their genetic material for viral replication or to induce changes in the bacterial genetic material.
At what point in the reproductive cycle of the T4 bacteriophage is host cell infection irreversible?
Once the T4 bacteriophage injects its genetic material into the host cell, infection becomes irreversible. This usually occurs as soon as the phage's tail fibers attach and the genome is injected, initiating the takeover of the host cell machinery for viral replication.
Is a virus that infects bacteria called bacteriophage?
bacteriophage
Which events occurs in the lytic cycle of bacteriophage T4 infection but not in the lysogenic cycle?
In the lytic cycle of bacteriophage T4 infection, the viral DNA takes control of the host cell machinery to replicate and assemble new viruses, leading to cell lysis and release of viral particles. This process does not involve integration of the viral DNA into the host genome, which is a key characteristic of the lysogenic cycle.
A virus that infects a bacterial cell is called?
Bacteriophage is the name given to a virus that infects bacteria. The name is frequently abbreviated to 'phage'. T4 phage is subject to a wide variety of experiments because it infects E. coli, and E. coli is one of the safer, more abundant and best understood bacteria to study.
A virus that infects a bacteria is known as a?
The type of virus that infects a bacteria is called a bacteriophage. An example of such a bacteriophage is the T3 bacteriophage.
