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.
噬菌体λ的δred - gam δren突变体对λ rexA + rexB +溶原菌的Rex排斥的敏感性受原噬菌体cI阻遏物等位基因的调节。我们展示了以下内容:(i) λ spi156 δnin5在cI + - rexA + - rexB +溶原菌上形成噬菌斑的效率比在cI[Ts] - rexA + - rexB +衍生物上高10^5倍。(ii) Rex排斥的cI[Ts]857等位基因增强相对于cI +是隐性的。(iii) cI857介导的Rex排斥活性增加涉及一个位于cI - rexA - rexB之外的遗传元件的参与。
