Twenty-five gene products of bacteriophage BF23 were identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and their functions were studied in relation to type I and II genes classified by means of genetic complementation tests. All the type I mutants were defective in the synthesis of a tail protein, L3. In addition, 4 type I gene products, L5 (gp21), L7 (gp20), L8 (gp29), and L9 (gp25), were identified as constituents of tails (gp21 denotes that a protein is a product of gene 21). Three type IIb mutants in genes 10, 14, and 19 diminished substantially the production of late proteins, including tail and head proteins, and the two other type IIb mutants in genes 1 and 2 were defective in the synthesis of both early and late proteins. Of 14 type IIa mutants, at least 6 were defective in phage DNA synthesis and 2 were defective in the synthesis of head proteins. The defect in the head donor activities of type IIa mutants in extract complementation tests was due to the failure of the formation of mature heads containing DNA. The above results support directly the results of the genetic characterization of BF23 genes.
