What is the function of bacteriophage?

Answer 1

The function of bacteria is to reproduce. Bacteria is a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. They are also the cause of human and animal diseases. Some bacteria, like those in the intestines are friendly and needed for digestion.

Answer 2

Enterobacteria phage T2, virulent bacteriophage of the T4-like viruses genus

Enterobacteria phage T4, phage that infects E. coli bacteria

Lambda phage, temperate bacteriophage that infects Escherichia coli

M13 phage, filamentous bacteriophage composed of circular single stranded DNA

P22 phage, virus that infects salmonella

Phi-X174 phage, the first organism to have its genome sequenced

Pseudomonas phage, the best-studied bacteriophage of the family Cystoviridae

T7 phage, phage capable of infecting susceptible bacterial cells

Answer 3

Bacteriophages are viruses that attach to the surface of bacteria and inject viral DNA into the bacteria. Each infected bacterial cell produces multiple copies of the virus which eventually burst from the bacterial cell, killing the host.

Answer 4

Bacteriophages are viruses that infect and replicate within bacteria. They inject their genetic material into a bacterial cell and hijack the cell's machinery to produce more phages, eventually causing the cell to burst (lyse) and release new phages to infect other bacteria. This makes bacteriophages important in controlling bacterial populations and in biotechnological applications such as phage therapy.

Answer 5

i think it is the main functiion is the main function!

Answer 6

Bacteriophage is a self reproducing parasite within bacteria.

Answer 7

A virus that infects bacteria

Answer 8

it infects and kills them.
