Prokaryotic genomes
-
-
-
Horizontal gene transfer = chromosome or plasmid passed to another individual, normally genes that improve fitness e.g. antibiotic resitance
-
Transduction
Lytic life cycle
Phage attaches and injects genome, transcription and translation, new phage assembles, cell lyses and releases progeny
Lysogenic life cycle
Prophage = phage genome integrates into host genome, passed onto daughter cells, signals (such as DNA damage) can trigger lytic life cycle

Prototroph = minimal medium, only need carbon no other organic molecules
