Lytic Cycle
Mircobiology - Lytic Cycle
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Lytic Cycle Steps 1& 2 | Adsorption & penetration |
Lytic Cycle Step 3 | Biosynthesis |
Lytic Cycle Step 4 | Maturation |
Lytic Cylce Step 5 | Release |
Adsorption & penetratin | Phage adsorbed to receptor site on bacterial cell wall, penetrates it, & inserts its DNA |
Biosynthesis | Phage DNA directs cell's metabolism to produce viral components- protiens & copies of phage DNA |
Maturation | heads are packed w/DNA |
Release | Bacterial Cell lyses releasing completed infective phages |
