Mechanisms that Determine the Differential Stability of Stx(+) and Stx(−) Lysogens

Phages 933W, BAA2326, 434, and λ are evolutionarily-related temperate lambdoid phages that infect Escherichia coli. Although these are highly-similar phages, BAA2326 and 933W naturally encode Shiga toxin 2 (Stx(+)), but phage 434 and λ do not (Stx(−)). Previous reports suggest that the 933W Stx(+) p...
