WHAT DOES LYSOGEN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Lysogen

A lysogen or lysogenic bacterium is a bacterial cell in which a phage exists as DNA in its dormant state. A prophage is either integrated into the host bacteria's chromosome or more rarely exists as a stable plasmid within the host cell. The prophage expresses gene that repress the phage's lytic action, until this repression is disrupted. Currently a variety of studies are being conducted to see whether other genes are active during lysogeny, examples of which include phage-encoded tRNA and virulence genes.

Definition of lysogen in the English dictionary

The definition of lysogen in the dictionary is a lysogenic phage.
