Genetic dissection of Mycobacteriophage D29 host lysis reveals two lysis regulators and a novel lipoprotein that regulate the lysis event and are localized to distinct regions of the genome

Richard S. Pollenz, Makenzie R. Davenport, Kira M. Ruiz-Houston

This study identifies two lysis regulators and a novel lipoprotein in Mycobacteriophage D29 that regulate lysis, showing distinct genetic and functional roles in the lysis process.
