Abstract
The introduction of the use of T-even bacteriophages as genetic and biochemical experimental systems by Max Delbrück in the late 1930s has led to the intense study of many aspects of bacteriophage biology. Of these, two related endeavors, the study of the structure and the assembly of the virions, have been very important models in the development of our current understanding of macromolecular assembly processes. Twenty years ago, Edgar, Kellenberger, Epstein, and collaborators nucleated these studies by showing that phage assembly follows defined pathways that can accumulate assembly intermediates when blocked and that the assembly-naive components of phage T4 thus accumulated could join properly in vitro (Epstein et al., 1963; Edgar and Wood, 1966; Wood et al., 1968). Since that time, the structure and assembly of many bacteriophages and other viruses have been studied. The possibility of completely defining the genetic systems, and therefore the proteins involved, has made phage assembly a particularly popular and tractable area in which to study macromolecular assembly. We will not consider it the mission of this chapter to collect the details of this myriad of studies. The reader should consult other chapters in this volume or other reviews for such details (e.g., Casjens and King, 1975; Murialdo and Becker, 1978a; Eiserling, 1979; Wood and King, 1979; King, 1980; DuBow, 1981; Mathews et al., 1983; Hendrix et al., 1983; Casjens, 1985c; Carrascosa, 1986). Instead we will focus on general questions currently under study and attempts to answer them in the various dsDNA phage systems. We will not discuss the problem of DNA packaging in detail and will not cover the lipid-containing dsDNA phages.
