Lysogenic viruses integrate their DNA into the DNA of the host cell and may live in the body for many years before responding to a trigger.
22.
Sometimes prophages may provide benefits to the host bacterium while they are dormant by adding new functions to the bacterial genome in a phenomenon called lysogenic conversion.
23.
Survival of UV-irradiated phage ? is increased when the E . coli host is lysogenic for an homologous prophage, a phenomenon termed prophage reactivation.
24.
The primary factor controlling the growth pathway is the multiplicity of infection ( moi ); high moi favors lysogenic pathway and low moi favors lytic pathway.
25.
In addition, there is an image used to illustrate the difference between the lytic and lysogenic cycles, but there is little explanation of the image.
26.
Phages that replicate only via the lytic cycle are known as virulent phages while phages that replicate using both lytic and lysogenic cycles are known as temperate phages.
27.
In the mechanism section we plan on including information about where and how T12 integrates into the host genome and about it's lysogenic and lytic pathway.
28.
Our group chose Lysogenic cycle due to its importance, its interest to the members, and the plethora of information available to be contributed via secondary resources.
29.
Meiotic division in the VE hypothesis arose because of the evolutionary pressures placed on the lysogenic virus as a result of its inability to enter into the lytic cycle.
30.
As has been known for at least thirty years, lysogenic ) are known for this species; this opens encouraging avenues but with additional risks as discussed below.
