[Lambdoid phage structural proteins and antigens].

The composition of structural proteins of lambdoid phages such as lambda, phi 80 434 divided by molecular weights was determined by means of SDS-disc-electrophoresis in a 15% polyacrylamide gel. The proteins of the same phages were divided by isoelectric points using an isoelectric focusing in a 5,25% polyacrylamide gel with 8 M urea and a gradient pH 7.0--3.5. The both methods brought out a composition character of the virion proteins and illustrated the high degree of similarity among the structural proteins of phages lambda and 434 and a far less similarity among the proteins lambda and phi 80. The antigenic composition of the lambdoid phage was determined and the basic antigenes were identified on one-dimensional and two-dimensional immunoelectrophoregrams. The appreciable immunochemical affinity of basic antigenes of the lambda and 434, but a partial affinity of the phages lambda and phi 80 were found. The basic protein of the head pE proved to be immunochemically similar for all three phages.

[Antigenic structure of bacteriophage lambda. Identification of the chief antigens of bacteriophage lambda].

The antigenic composition of the bacteriophages lambdaC1857 and lambdagt-lambdaC was investigated by modified immunoelectrophoresis in a 1,2% agarose gel involving 1% Triton X-100 and 0,25% sodium desoxycholate. The phages lambdaC1857 and lambdagt-lambdaC were shown to have identical antigenic compositions and to comprise three basic antigens, such as a1, a2, a3. The main structural proteins of the phage such as pE, pV and pD were isolated by preparative electrophoresis in 13% polyacrilamide gel. The immunophoresis of individual proteins indicated the antigens a1, a2 and a3 to be proteins pV, pD and pE, respectively.
