The morphology of the intracellular development of bacteriophage φ25 inBacillus subtilis 168M has been correlated with nucleic acid synthesis in infected cells. Host deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis was shut off by a phage-induced enzyme within 5 min after infection, and another phage-mediated function extensively degraded host DNA at the time of cell lysis. Synthesis of phage DNA in infected cells began within 5 min and continued until late in the rise period. After phage DNA synthesis and coinciding with lysis, much of the unpackaged, newly synthesized phage DNA was degraded. Studies of thin sections of φ25 infected cells suggested that unfilled capsids may be precursors to filled capsids in the packaging process. To assess dependence of capsid formation on phage DNA replication, cells were either treated with mitomycin C and infected with normal phage or infected with ultraviolet-irradiated (99% killed) φ25. Only empty capsids were found in these cells, indicating that capsid production may be independent of the presence of newly synthesized viral DNA.
