Replication of bacteriophage ST-1 in Escherichia coli strains temperature sensitive in DNA synthesis.
Bacteriophage ST-1 replication requires DNA polymerase III (dnaE) but not DNA polymerases I or II, DNA ligase, or the products of dnaA, B, or C-D. It was not certain whether dnaG was required. These results differ considerably from those reported for phiX-174.
