Data are obtained suggesting the involvement of the cor gene of the [symbol: see text] 80 phage in regulation of phage operons. Mutations in the cor gene, which is located outside the region of phage [symbol: see text] 80 immunity, cause disturbances in the establishment and maintenance of the phage lysogenic state. The cor gene was shown to affect RecA-inactivation of the phage repressor induced by UV-irradiation. A model suggesting cor gene involvement in [symbol: see text] 80 operon regulation is discussed. |
