[Identification of the restriction and modification systems in Streptomyces strains]. / Identifikatsiia sistem restriktsii i modifikatsii u shtammov Streptomyces.

Host range of actinophage phi C31, VP5 and Pg81 in respect to 109 strains of Streptomyces genus and hybrid strain Rcg2 from the cross S. coelicolor A3(2)XS. griseus Kr was studied. The existence of RM-systems in strains S. griseus Kr15, S. griseus Kr20, Rcg2, S. griseofovillus 43 was shown using phage Pg81. Mutants of Pg81 were observed which to some extent lost snesitivity to RM-system in the strain Rcg2. The presence of RM-system in S. lividans 67 was demonstrated by the phage VP5.
