Homoimmune At Biology Glossary
What is it? Expression of a repressor by a lysogenic phage that prevents successful infection by another phage with the same repressor-operator recognition. For example, lambda lysogens are resistant to superinfection by another lambda phage because upon entering the lysogen, cI produced by the prophage turns off gene expression from PL and PR on the incoming phage.Bio Definition Added By: Jayden
