Derepression of prophage P2 by satellite phage P4: cloning of the P4 epsilon gene and identification of its product.

Escherichia coli phage P4 lacks all of the genetic information necessary for capsid, tail, and lysis functions. P4 is therefore dependent on a helper phage, such as P2, for lytic propagation. During P4 superinfection of a P2 lysogen, the P2 prophage is derepressed by the action of the P4-encoded eps...
