56 VIRAL PROTEIN AND NUCLEIC ACID IN BACTERIOPHAGE GROWTH 



protective coat that is responsible for the adsorption to bacteria, and functions 

 as an instrument for the injection of the phage DNA into the cell. This pro- 

 tein probably has no function in the growth of intracellular phage. The DNA 

 has some function. Further chemical inferences should not be drawn from the 

 experiments presented.
