1. If a lambda
cI mutant infected
Escherichia coli, what
lifecycle would you
expect to take
place after infection?
Explain your answer.
2. Briefly describe how
the bacteriophage lambda
decides on undergoing
lysis or lysogeny.
3. How can lysis
occur if a lambda
phage has already
formed a stable
lysogeny?
4. In generalized
transduction, only 1
or 2 progeny phage
may function as
transducing particles. On
the other hand, in
specialized transduction, all
the progeny phage
are transducing ...
