Term Information

Accession: GO:0098001
Name: receptor-mediated bacteriophage reversible attachment to host cell
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: reversible bacteriophage attachment, binding of host cell surface receptor, phage reversible adsorption
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: Process by which a bacteriophage, using its tail fibers, spikes or a baseplate component, initially recognizes and binds to its specific receptor on the host cell surface. This process is reversible and allows the release of a bacteriophage without affecting infection. Source: GOC:bm
Comment: This process was historically defined by the release, by Waring blending or sonication, by dilution and centrifugation, or by filtration and washing, of infective virions from their complexes with cells, thus contrary to what is observed after irreversible adsorption.
History: See term history for GO:0098001 at QuickGO
