Bacteriophage lambda repressor allelic modulation of the Rex exclusion phenotype.

Abstract:

:The sensitivity of delta red-gam delta ren mutants of bacteriophage lambda to Rex exclusion by lambda rexA+ rexB+ lysogens is modulated by the prophage cI repressor allele. We show the following: (i) lambda spi156 delta nin5 forms plaques on a cI+-rexA+-rexB+ lysogen with 10(5)-fold higher efficiency than on cI[Ts]-rexA+-rexB+ derivatives. (ii) The cI[Ts]857 allele augmentation of Rex exclusion is recessive to cI+. (iii) The cI857-mediated increase in Rex exclusion activity involves the participation of a genetic element mapping outside of cI-rexA-rexB.
