If you were to try to develop a strain of bacteriophage lambda that could only execute the lysogenic pathway, where would you expect to find the phage DNA in the bacterial cell?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The lysogenic pathway involves integration of the phage DNA into the bacterial chromosome, where it becomes a prophage and is replicated along with the bacterial DNA. Therefore, to develop a strain of bacteriophage lambda that can only execute the lysogenic pathway, the phage DNA would need to be integrated into the bacterial chromosome.
