The transient electric birefringence behavior of bacteriophage T2 and the T2 ghost or protein coat was studied. The field free relaxation measurements show both the intact virus and its ghost to have two rotary diffusion coefficients. These coefficients have values of 555 f 54 and 111 f 22 sec.-1 fo

## Abstract Transient electric birefringence measurements of the rotational diffusion constant of five short restriction fragments of the plasmid pBR322 show that the hydrodynamic length is independent of sodium ion concentration in the range of 0.2 to 2.5 m__M__. The fragments are too stiff to be
## Abstract Transient electric birefringence measurements of the bacteriophages T2L0 and T6 were performed under such conditions that the tail fibers are extended. The data obtained are compared to previously reported data for T4B. For all Tβeven phages the degree of extension of the tail fibers is
