Abstract

The presence of glucose in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of the even-numbered bacteriophages of the T series was discovered by Jesaitis and independently by Sinsheimer. This glucose was shown to be associated with the hydroxymethylcytosine (HMC) in these nucleic acids as a glycoside substituent to the hydroxymethyl group (Sinsheimer; Volkin).
