Abstract

Morphogenesis of the filamentous bacteriophage f1 occurred at adhesion zones between the inner and outer membranes of the host cell. Quantitation of adhesion zones in cells infected with mutant phage strains suggested that the phage gene I protein may be involved in the formation of adhesion zones for phage assembly.
