Inserting DNA into a phage head involves two types of reaction:

translocation and condensation. Both are energetically unfavorable.

The genome is packaged into the empty capsid by the terminase enzyme.

The bacterial genome consists of a large number of loops of duplex DNA (in the form of a fiber), each of which is secured at the base to form an independent structural domain.

Each domain consists of -40 kilobases of DNA, or may be smaller, 10 kb each. About -400 domains in the E. coli genome. The ends of the domains appear to be randomly distributed instead of located at predetermined sites on the chromosome.
