Life Cycle of Bacteriaophage Class 11 MDCAT

Lytic CycleAttachment: The bacteriophage attaches to a specific receptor on the bacterial cell.Penetration: The phage injects its genetic material into the host.Biosynthesis: The host's machinery is hijacked to produce viral components.Assembly: New phage particles are assembled inside the host.Release: The host cell lyses (bursts), releasing new phages to infect other bacteria.Lysogenic CycleAttachment: Similar to the lytic cycle, the phage attaches to the bacterial cell.Penetration: The phage injects its genetic material.Integration: The phage DNA integrates into the bacterial chromosome, becoming a prophage.Replication: The prophage replicates along with the host’s DNA during cell division.Induction (optional): Under certain conditions, the prophage can excise itself, entering the lytic cycle. • Hashtags: • #LyticCycle • #LysogenicCycle • #Bacteriophage • #ViralLifeCycle • #Microbiology • #PhageInfection • #ViralReplication • #GeneticIntegration • #Prophage • #CellLysis • #BacterialVirus • #InfectiousAgents • #MolecularBiology • #PathogenResearch • #ViralTherapy • link bacteriophages structure: • • Structure of Bacteriophage |Class 11|...
