What is the purpose of incubating the lambda phage/E.coli mixture at room temperature for 20min? Incubation at room temperature inactivates the cI repressor. During incubation at room temperature the lambda phage will enter the lytic cycle. Incubation at room temperature allows for the absorption of lambda phage Incubation at room temperature will allow the lambda phage to remain in the lysogenic cycle.arrow_forward

- Human Papillomaviruses has of many strains. Some of them cause warts while others can cause cancer. The question is why some strains cause cancer and others cause relatively harmless warts. Please mention the status of the viral genome (or parts of it), such as integrated or free, and the action of the viral oncogenes in terms of promoting cell division (when it would normally be controlled). And what proteins do the products of the viral oncogenes target? And also what is their normal function?arrow_forwardAbout the technique of phage display: MOLECULAR BIOLOGY_advanced The Escherichia coli cell infected by the phage codifies for the optimized ligand when the phage DNA integrates in the DNA of the bacteria. Phages are selected if they express on their surface the optimized ligand. One selects Escherichia coli cells that are resistant to the phage infection. More than one optimized ligand can be selected during the panning procedure. The ligand to be selected on the surface of the phage is non-covalently linked to one of the surface proteins.arrow_forwarda. Explain what is happening the figure below.
