Inhibition of host deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis by T4 bacteriophage in the absence of protein synthesis. 1971

D H Duckworth

The requirement for phage protein synthesis for the inhibition of host deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis has been investigated by using a phage mutant unable to catalyze the production of any phage deoxyribonucleic acid. It has been concluded that the major pathway whereby phage inhibit host syntheses requires protein synthesis. The inhibition of host syntheses by phage ghosts is not affected by inhibitors of protein synthesis.

D009995	Osmosis	Tendency of fluids (e.g., water) to move from the less concentrated to the more concentrated side of a semipermeable membrane.	Osmoses
D011691	Puromycin	A cinnamamido ADENOSINE found in STREPTOMYCES alboniger. It inhibits protein synthesis by binding to RNA. It is an antineoplastic and antitrypanosomal agent and is used in research as an inhibitor of protein synthesis.

D002499	Centrifugation, Density Gradient	Separation of particles according to density by employing a gradient of varying densities. At equilibrium each particle settles in the gradient at a point equal to its density.

D002701	Chloramphenicol	An antibiotic first isolated from cultures of Streptomyces venequelae in 1947 but now produced synthetically. It has a relatively simple structure and was the first broad-spectrum antibiotic to be discovered. It acts by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis and is mainly bacteriostatic.
