Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

SUMMARY Infection of Escherichia coli by bacteriophage T4 is not accompanied by leakage of β-galactosidase. Liberation of the enzyme, soon after infection, results from lysis from without. The nature of the lytic enzyme systems responsible for lysis from without is discussed.
