Bacteriophage phi 105clz induces the GroEL-homologue protein in Bacillus subtilis.

Abstract

Using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the GroEL homologue of Bacillus subtilis was shown to be induced upon infection with phi 105clz, a clear plaque mutant of the temperate bacteriophage phi 105. Western blotting of one dimensional polyacrylamide gels also showed the induction of the GroEL homologue when cells were infected with phi 105clz.
