T4
1. Attachment
2. Penetration

5. Release
What stage of the life cycle of T4..
-Tail fibers attach to the cell surface of the bacterium
-Tail is aligned with the surface
Stage 1: Attachment
What stage of the life cycle of T4..
-Tail contact allows a lysozome-like enzyme to digest the peptidoglycan
-Sheath contact pushing core into the cytoplasm
-T4 dsDNA injected into the host
Stage 2: Penetration
What stage of the life cycle of T4..
-Phage DNA is transcribed into RNA and proteins are made
-Synthesis of early proteins take over the host
-Synthesis of intermediate proteins - primarly involved in _____________.
-Synthesis of late proteins - phage heads and tails, then cell lysis proteins
Stage 3: Biosynthesis
-DNA replication
What stage of the life cycle of T4..
-assembly of phage particle
A. Phage DNA fills the head particle
B. Tail attaches
C. Tail fibers attach
Stage 4: Maturation
What stage of the life cycle of T4..
-Enzyme digest into peptidoglycan
-The cell lyses releasing phage
Stage 5: Releasing
-When a single injected cell is mixed with thousands of uninjected cells
-the lysis of the injected cell releases new phages which injects into surrounding cells
-these cells lyse releasing more phage
-resules in a HOLE in the bacterial lawn
Plaque
A lysogenic phage=Lambda
has two cycles
1. ____: make more phage
2. ____: phage DNA integrates into chromosome and becomes dormant
1. Lytic
2. Lysogeny
1. Integrated viral protein is called ________.

2. Cells within lambda in the chromosome are called _______.
1. Prophage
2. lysogens or lysogenic cells
-A change in enviromental conditions can cause the prophage to come out of the chromosome
-a repressor becomes degraded allowing phage gene expression
-results in: phage enters lyic cycle and produces more phages that release once the cells lyse
Induction of a lysogen
cells gain new properties (ex. altered surface components), when they becomes a lysogen of a phage
Lysogenic Conversion
Lysogenic stains of Corynebacterium diphtheriae produce a potent exotoxin hat is the cause of ________.

2. '' Steptococcus produces _____.
