Best Answer

The immune system recognizes antigens present within infectious organisms/viral particles/tumor cells. These antigens are typically proteins, but can be complexed with lipids or carbohydrates. Nucleic acids can be targeted by the immune system, but they are not distinct enough to act as appropriate antigens.

What is temperate phage superinfection immunity?

c. Repression of the phage genome - A phage coded protein, called a repressor, is made which binds to a particular site on the phage DNA, called the operator, and shuts off transcription of most phage genes EXCEPT the repressor gene. The result is a stable repressed phage genome which is integrated into the host chromosome. Each temperate phage will only repress its own DNA and not that from other phage, so that repression is very specific (immunity to superinfection with the same phage).Reference: http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/mayer/phage.htm
