Generation of affinity-tagged fluoromycobacteriophages by mixed assembly of phage capsids
Addition of affinity tags to bacteriophage particles facilitates a variety of applications, including vaccine construction and diagnosis of bacterial infections. Addition of tags to phage capsids is desirable, as modification of the tails can lead to poor adsorption and loss of infectivity. Although...

Addition of affinity tags to bacteriophage particles facilitates a variety of applications, including vaccine construction and diagnosis of bacterial infections.

The addition of a small (10-amino-acid) Strep-tag II (STAG II) to the mycobacteriophage TM4 capsid subunit, gp9, was not tolerated as a genetically homogenous recombinant phage but could be incorporated into the head by growth of wild-type phage on a host expressing the capsid-STAG fusion.
