“…It is not known, however, whether this control operates at the level of host DNA. Another observation was that infection of ultraviolet-treated bacteria by RNA phage results in the accumulation of double-stranded viral RNA (41,44). It was suggested that a host-cell function which normally prevents the accumulation of this double-stranded form was damaged by radiation (41).…”

RNA phage replication may not exhibit the autonomy of the T-even phages which are capable of multiplying in bacteria treated with ultraviolet light (2).…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
