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 |
