Bioreactor studies on temperature induction of the Q- mutant of bacteriophage lambda in Escherichia coli.

Abstract excerpt

The parasite-host interactions between bacteriophage lambda (denoted as lambda) and Escherichia coli bacteria were studied in different bioreactor systems. Although the replicated lambda-DNA of Q- mutant remains naked for a longer time to reach a high gene expression, the epidemic of lambda-infection and the coevolutionary host-phage relations limit the temperature induction efficiency. The temperature induction...
