What research has been done on rheumatic fever?
In 2002, a report announced that scientists had mapped the genome (genetic material) of an A streptococcus bacterium responsible for acute rheumatic fever.
What is a prophage-?
Genetic material of a bacteriophage , joined into the genome of a bacterium and able to produce phages if activated
What is the complete set genes of an individual?

When the bacteriophage DNA becomes part of the bacterial chromosome?
During phage infection into bacteria, it penetrates phage DNA into bacterium,which will be integrated in to the bacterial genome (chromosome) to replicate and synthesize phage molecules.
What is the largest bacterial gene known?
Sorangium cellulosum is a soil-dwelling Gram-negative bacteria of the group myxobacteria. It is motile and shows gliding motility. It has an unusually-large genome 12,200,000 base pairs in size. A more recent work sequenced the genome of Sorangium cellulosum So ce56 (a specific strain of the bacterium) and put its size at 13,033,779 base pairs making it the largest bacterial genome sequenced to date.
What do you call the entire DNA of a organism?
genome
What causes Whipple's disease?
The bacterium that causes Whipple's disease was only successfully cultured in 1997. Tropheryma whipplei belongs to the high G+C phylum of gram-positive bacteria, and its genome was sequenced in 2003.
The process of making multiple copies of a gene by inserting it into a host genome and culturing the host is called?
gene cloning
