DNA ejection from bacteriophage: towards a general behavior for osmotic suppression experiments

Martin Castelnovo, Alex Evilevitch

We present in this work in vitro measurements of the force ejecting DNA from two distinct bacteriophages (T5 and lambda) using the smotic-suppression technique. Our data are analyz…

Measuring the force ejecting DNA from phage

A. Evilevitch, M. Castelnovo, C. M. Knobler +1

We discuss how a balance can be established between the force acting to eject DNA from viral capsids and the force resisting its entry into a colloidal suspension which mimics the…
