  2. Lambda phage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_phage

    Lambda strains, mutated at specific sites, are unable to lysogenize cells; instead, they grow and enter the lytic cycle after superinfecting an already lysogenized cell. [ 3 ] The phage particle consists of a head (also known as a capsid ), [ 4 ] a tail, and tail fibers (see image of virus below).

  3. Sticky and blunt ends - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_and_blunt_ends

    The simplest DNA end of a double stranded molecule is called a blunt end. Blunt ends are also known as non-cohesive ends. In a blunt-ended molecule, both strands terminate in a base pair. Blunt ends are not always desired in biotechnology since when using a DNA ligase to join two molecules into one, the yield is significantly lower with blunt ...

  4. Immunoglobulin light chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoglobulin_light_chain

    If the lymph node or similar tissue is reactive, or otherwise benign, it should possess a mixture of kappa positive and lambda positive cells. If, however, one type of light chain is significantly more common than the other, the cells are likely all derived from a small clonal population, which may indicate a malignant condition, such as B-cell ...

Function Immunoglobulins recognize ...

  6. Cosmid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmid

    Those cells which did not take up the cosmid would be unable to grow. [3] Unlike plasmids, they can also be packaged in vitro into phage capsids, a step which requires cohesive ends, also known as cos sites also used in cloning with a lambda phage as a vector, however nearly all the lambda genes have been deleted with the exception of the cos ...

  7. Integration host factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_host_factor

    HU and integration host factor function as auxiliary proteins in cleavage of phage lambda cohesive ends by terminase is an academic journal written by the Department of Molecular Genetics. In their article, they created isogenic strains of E.coli that were lacking HU or integration host factors to test whether bacteriophage would grow under ...

  8. Vector (molecular biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_(molecular_biology)

    In molecular cloning, a vector is any particle (e.g., plasmids, cosmids, Lambda phages) used as a vehicle to artificially carry a foreign nucleic sequence – usually DNA – into another cell, where it can be replicated and/or expressed. [1] A vector containing foreign DNA is termed recombinant DNA.

  9. V (D)J recombination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V(D)J_recombination

    An autoimmune response is prevented by eliminating cells that self-react. This occurs in the thymus by testing the cell against an array of self antigens expressed through the function of the autoimmune regulator (AIRE). The immunoglobulin lambda light chain locus contains protein-coding genes that can be lost with its rearrangement.
