Define plaque, lysogeny, and prophage.
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Define 'plaque' as a clear zone on a bacterial lawn where bacteriophages have infected and lysed the bacterial cells, indicating areas of cell destruction caused by viral infection.
Explain 'lysogeny' as a viral life cycle in which the bacteriophage integrates its genome into the host bacterial chromosome, existing in a dormant state without causing immediate lysis of the host cell.
Describe 'prophage' as the viral DNA that has been integrated into the bacterial genome during lysogeny, which can replicate along with the host DNA and remain latent until induced to enter the lytic cycle.
Clarify that plaques are visible evidence of the lytic cycle, whereas lysogeny and prophage represent a dormant phase of the virus within the host.
Summarize the relationship: plaques result from lytic infection, lysogeny is the dormant integration phase, and prophage is the integrated viral DNA within the host genome.

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Plaque
A plaque is a clear zone formed on a bacterial lawn where bacteriophages have infected and lysed bacterial cells. It represents areas of bacterial cell death caused by viral replication and release, useful for quantifying phage particles.

Lysogeny
Lysogeny is a viral life cycle in which a bacteriophage integrates its genome into the host bacterial chromosome, remaining dormant as a prophage. The host cell continues to live and reproduce, passing the viral DNA to daughter cells.

Prophage
A prophage is the viral DNA integrated into the bacterial genome during lysogeny. It remains inactive but can later be induced to enter the lytic cycle, producing new phages and lysing the host cell.

Domanda del libro di testo
A plaque assay is performed beginning with 1 mL of a solution containing bacteriophages. This solution is serially diluted three times by combining 0.1 mL of each sequential dilution with 9.9 mL of liquid medium. Then 0.1 mL of the final dilution is plated in the plaque assay and yields 17 plaques. What is the initial density of bacteriophages in the original 1 mL?

Domanda del libro di testo
If a single bacteriophage infects one E. coli cell present on a lawn of bacteria and, upon lysis, yields 200 viable viruses, how many phages will exist in a single plaque if three more lytic cycles occur?
