Bacteriophage Crosstalk: Coordination of Prophage Induction by Trans-Acting Antirepressors
Many species of bacteria harbor multiple prophages in their genomes. Prophages often carry genes that confer a selective advantage to the bacterium, typically during host colonization. Prophages can convert to infectious viruses through a process known as induction, which is relevant to the spread o...
