What is the time-scale of lytic T7 bacteriophage infection of E. coli. Phage protein synthesis. E. coli lysis?

05 December 2014 1 3K Report

How well known is the timescale of T7 bacteriophage infection (t =0) through cell lysis (t=end)? How well is this characterized? What tools are used to monitor this bacteriophage infection pathway?

David Oppenheimer

T7 was used as an early model in molecular biology in the 1960s and 1970s. It is very well characterized. The life cycle is 17-23 minutes. You can get more information by doing a Google search using "phage T7 life cycle" and "phage T7 protein synthesis" as search terms, and reading through the articles.
