Organelles present in bacteriophage

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-09-04] [Hit: ]
Typical phages have hollow heads (where the phage DNA or RNA is stored) and tunnel tails, the tips of which have the ability to bind to specific molecules on the surface of their target bacteria. The viral DNA is then injected through the tail into the host cell, where it directs the production of progeny phages often over a hundred in half an hour. These young phages burst from the host cell (killing it) and infect more bacteria.Have NO organelles.......
What is the structure and function of the organelles present in bacteriophage? and anything else about bacteriophage is good too (: Thanks (:

Bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that infect bacteria. Typical phages have hollow heads (where the phage DNA or RNA is stored) and tunnel tails, the tips of which have the ability to bind to specific molecules on the surface of their target bacteria. The viral DNA is then injected through the tail into the host cell, where it directs the production of progeny phages often over a hundred in half an hour. These "young" phages burst from the host cell (killing it) and infect more bacteria.

Have NO organelles.
