In a 1945 study by Demerec and Fano, [4] T7 was used to describe one of the seven phage types (T1 to T7) that grow lytically on Escherichia coli. [5] Although all seven phages were numbered arbitrarily, phages with odd numbers, or T-odd phages, were later discovered to share morphological and biochemical features that distinguish them from T-even phages. [6]
T7 phage group was renamed to T7-like phages in the sixth report in 1995. In 1998, the whole family was moved into the newly created order Caudovirales , and the genus was renamed again in the seventh report in 1999 to T7-like viruses . 2009 saw the genus moved into the newly created subfamily Autographivirinae , and it was renamed again in ...

The P" phage is the type species. The subfamily Spounavirinae are all virulent, broad-host range phages that infect members of the Bacillota . They possess isometric heads of 87-94 nm in diameter and conspicuous capsomers , striated 140-219 nm long tails and a double base plate.
In biotechnology applications, T7 RNA polymerase is commonly used to transcribe DNA that has been cloned into vectors that have two (different) phage promoters (e.g., T7 and T3, or T7 and SP6) in opposite orientation. RNA can be selectively synthesized from either strand of the insert DNA with the different polymerases.

The 'helper' phage infects the bacterial host by first attaching to the host cell's pilus and then, after attachment, transporting the phage genome into the cytoplasm of the host cell. Inside the cell, the phage genome triggers production of single stranded phagemid DNA in the cytoplasm. This phagemid DNA is then packaged into phage particles.
Soon, the lab was able to clone the T7 RNA polymerase and use it, along with the powerful T7 promoter, to transcribe copious amounts of almost any gene. [4] The development of the T7 expression system has been considered the most successful biotechnology developed at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, being licensed by over 900 companies which ...
