Abstract excerpt

Lysogens of the temperate lambdoid phage HK022 are immune to superinfection by HK022. Superinfection immunity is conferred in part by the action of the HK022 CI repressor at the O.R operators. In this work, we have identified an additional regulatory element involved in immunity. This site, terme...
