  • Title: Isolation and characterization of a bacteriophage infective for a UDP-galactose-4-epimeraseless mutant of Escherichia coli.
    Author: Pazoles CJ, Kulpa CF.
    Journal: Can J Microbiol; 1975 Aug; 21(8):1217-23. PubMed ID: 1100208.
    Abstract:
    A DNA bacteriophage, designated CP13, was isolated against Escherichia coli J5, a UDP-galactose-4-epimeraseless mutant of E. coli 0111:B4. Bacteriophage CP13 appears to be specific for rough bacterial strains. Adsorption studies with E. coli J5 grown with galactose show that the bacteriophage will not adsorb when complete lipopolysaccharide is present in the cell membrane. This indicates that lipopolysaccharide may be directly or indirectly involved with the receptor site for bacteriophage CP13. The bacteriophage DNA has a G + C content of 52%.
