Double-Stranded DNA Bacteriophage: the first discovered phage and the most extensively studied ds dna viruses. Example: T7 1. Linear double-stranded DNA with 39,936 base pairs 2.92% DNA codes for protein 3. Gene overlap through translation in different reading frame and through internal translational reinitiation as well as internal frame shifts 4. One of the coded proteins inhibits the host restriction system, it is synthesized before the entire t7 genome enters the cells
