Charles 'Charley' M. Steinberg (1932 – September 17, 1999) was an immunobiologist and permanent member of the Basel Institute for Immunology.
The amber mutants discovered by Charles Steinberg in collaboration with Richard H. Epstein[9] provided a unique opportunity to study the function of virtually all the genes of phage T4 that are required for growth of the phage under laboratory conditions.
[10] Soon after their discovery, the phage amber mutants, initially characterized by Steinberg and Epstein, were made available to many other investigators.
The-amber mutants contributed to our understanding of the functions and interactions of the proteins employed in DNA replication, DNA repair, genetic recombination and the assembly of viruses from their molecular components.
