Adsorption Specificity of Bacteriophage PBS1

Abstract
Frankel, Ruth W. (University of Oregon Medical School, Portland), and Terence M. Joys . Adsorption specificity of bacteriophage PBS1. J. Bacteriol. 92: 388–389. 1966.—By use of newly isolated nonflagellate mutants, the location of the receptor site for phage PBS1 is confirmed as being on the flagella of Bacillus subtilis . Tests with partially purified flagella isolated from a culture of susceptible organisms, and with a strain of B. subtilis possessing nonfunctional flagella, show that phage PBS1 has an adsorption specificity for active flagella.
