Heat induced capsid disassembly and DNA release of bacteriophage λ.

Successive structural changes of bacteriophage λ upon heating were characterized with quantitative experimental methods. In the commonly used Tris-Mg buffer, differential scanning calorimetry measurements first established that the protein capsid of λ phage melts at 87 °C and its genomic DNA melts a...
