Repressors What are They
Bacteriophages when infecting the Bacteria have to make an important
decision
3CONFIDENTIAL
If Life is bestowed
• Lytic promoters have to be silenced• Repressors come to limelight to do
their job• They Block the promoter’s sites for
lytic pathway then proceed to Lysogeny
• Repressor also binds to DNA at specific sequences
• Found multiple times in genome
CONFIDENTIAL4
Objective is to locate those sites
• By Utilizing• computational tools integrated in BioBIKE,-• A graphical programming interface that enables
biologist to approach complex research questions • Upstream sequences of relevant phages
CONFIDENTIAL5
Data- available for Che12, e-lambda,L5
and Bxb1

Same method for L5 and Bxb1

Testing Time• Apply the same technique to find to
binding sites of some random phages
