Actinophage phi C31 deletion c mutants with impaired ability to make repressor were genetically studied. Genetic crosses indicate that the c28 deletion mutant is situated with the c-region of the phi C31 genetic map. Based on the results of a qualitive test for recombination between several c mutants, a scheme of their order relative to deletion mutants was presented. The approximate distances between eight c mutants have been represented in units of the physical DNA map estimation. Genetic studies of actinophage lyg deletion mutants which cannot lysogenize sensitive cultures were carried out. Mutants failed to lysogenize upon mixed infection with lyg+ phages. The absence of the effect of lyg+ gene in trans suggests that lyg deletions cause a structural defect in an integration site of the phage. Preliminary data on alignment of lyg positions on physical and genetic maps of phi C31 phage have been obtained. According to evidence from genetic crosses, lyg mutation has been located in the right half of the phi C31 genome.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008242 Lysogeny The phenomenon by which a temperate phage incorporates itself into the DNA of a bacterial host, establishing a kind of symbiotic relation between PROPHAGE and bacterium which results in the perpetuation of the prophage in all the descendants of the bacterium. Upon induction (VIRUS ACTIVATION) by various agents, such as ultraviolet radiation, the phage is released, which then becomes virulent and lyses the bacterium. Integration, Prophage,Prophage Integration,Integrations, Prophage,Prophage Integrations
D009154 Mutation Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations. Mutations
D011995 Recombination, Genetic Production of new arrangements of DNA by various mechanisms such as assortment and segregation, CROSSING OVER; GENE CONVERSION; GENETIC TRANSFORMATION; GENETIC CONJUGATION; GENETIC TRANSDUCTION; or mixed infection of viruses.
