Abstract
The study of bacterial viruses has contributed important information for the development of modern biology. The theoretical genetical considerations of Timofeev-Ressovsky, Zimmer, and Delbrück (Timofeev-Ressovsky et al. 1935) in the 1930s and the use of phages as experimental objects (for a review see Cairns et al. 1966) were the basis for many breakthroughs in modern biology. Advances in knowledge of recombination, replication, transcription, and translation and their controls depended essentially on bacterial virus systems. Although there is some apparent discrimination against “lower systems,” the exciting recent progress in genetic engineering results from studies on bacterial viruses. Another illustration of the importance of research on bacterial viruses is the elucidation of the role of a protein kinase in oncogenic viruses, a development which was triggered by the discovery of the first viral protein kinase in T7-infected E. coli (Rahmsdorf et al. 1973).
