When Escherichia coli is infected with bacteriophage BF23, two new proteins with molecular weights greater than 10,000, as indicated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, are found associated with the cells' membranes. One of these, found associated with both the inner and outer membrane, has a molecular weight of about 55,000 and is regulated by the A1 gene of this phage, a gene found on the spontaneously injected 8% piece of BF23 DNA, DNA that codes for the synthesis of proteins necessary for the injection of the whole phage genome. The other protein, often undetected in whole membrane preparations, is found exclusively associated with the inner membrane. Evidence indicates that this protein is also regulated by the initially injected 8% piece of the DNA.
