TL;DR: These results provide support for the existence of a phage-induced enzyme (enzyme I) which converts single-stranded viral RNA into a double-Stranded form late in infection.
109 citations
TL;DR: Temperature-sensitive mutants of phage f2 have been isolated and classified into three groups by physiological criteria, and these mutants can be related to a series of amber mutants of f2.
82 citations
TL;DR: A model is presented for the replication of phage RNA on the basis of events occurring after infection of bacteria with wild-type and a temperature-sensitive mutant phage, which indicates that there are two enzymatic activities necessary to replicatephage RNA.
Abstract: Events occurring after infection of bacteria with wild-type and a temperature-sensitive mutant phage indicate that there are two enzymatic activities necessary to replicate phage RNA. One converts single strands into double strands, while the other uses double strands to svnthesize viral RNA. The mutant is deficient in the first activity, probably because the mutation is in the gene specifying the requisite enzyme. On the basis of these and other results, a model is presented for the replication of phage RNA.

TL;DR: In this article, Amino-and carboxyl-terminal analyses were performed on the protein and the peptides, and the tryptic peptides which occupy the terminal positions in the protein were identified.
