Role of the lytic repressor in prophage induction of phage λ as analyzed by a module-replacement approach

Using a module exchange approach, we have tested a long-standing model for the role of Cro repressor in λ prophage induction. This epigenetic switch from lysogeny to the lytic state occurs on activation of the host SOS system, which leads to specific cleavage of CI repressor. It has been proposed th...
