title: [Lysogenic conversion caused by phage phi 80. III. The mapping of the conversion gene and additional characterization of the phenomenon].
abstract: The cor gene specifies lysogenic conversion caused by the lambdoid phage phi 80. The cor gene product inhibits tonA function in infected and lysogenic cells. The cells harboring pBR322 plasmid with the cloned cor gene of phi 80 became resistant to the phages T1 and phi 80 (TonA phenotype). The cor gene was mapped between 24 and 13 genes on the phi 80 phage genetic map. It is not essential for phage lytic growth. Its presence in lysogens leads up to accumulation of tonA mutants in a cell population.
