What is the phage DNA that is integrated into a host cell's chromosome is called a?
Phage DNA that is integrated into a host's cell chromosome is a bacteriophage. They behave as lytic or lysogenic. Lytic breaks open the host after replication, , lysogenic does not destroy the host.
Name and explain the stages of viral reproduction?
The bacteriophage blinds to the bacterium.The phage DNA enters the host cell.The host DNA is digested, new phage DNA forms, using nucleoleotides from former host DNA.The host cell transcribes and translates the phage DNA, producing phage proteins.Assembly of new is complete. A phage-encoded enzyme causes the cell to lyse.New phage are released to start the cycle again.
What does a phage inject when it attaches to a bacterium?
Dna and phage body
What is the need for phage titration?
PHAGE TRTRATION IS DONE SO AS TO FIND THE AMOUNT OF PHAGE PARTICLES PRESENT IN THE STOCK PHAGE TRTRATION IS DONE SO AS TO FIND THE AMOUNT OF PHAGE PARTICLES PRESENT IN THE STOCK
A virus that reproduces in a bacterium is called?
phage
What is another term for a lysogenic phage?
temperate phage
When phage attaches to a bacteria the phage injects what?
DNA single
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
What are temperate phages?
A phage that can enter into lysogeny with its host. A phage that can become a prophage.
When a phage attaches to a bacterium what does the phage inject and what stays attached to the cell?
The part that remains outside is called the capsid or protein coat.
What is SDS phage?
there is nothing like SDS phage but... 1. SDS is a well know detergent used to denature proteins before electrophoresis called SDSPAGE. 2. phage (bacteriophage) is a virus that infects the bacteria which contains eother DNA or RNA. SDS PAGE can be used to determine the phage proteins which u can call SDSPAGE of phage.

The cast of Phage - 1997 includes: Jasper Bagg as Burke
