Anti-SOS effects induced in Bacillus subtilis by a φ{symbol}105 mutant prophage
The presence of the mutant prophage φ{symbol}105cts23 in Bacillus subtilis strains strongly affected several biological parameters including the viability of protoplasts and the establishment of plasmid pC194. A defective inducibility of the prophage after treatments that de-repress the SOS-like res...
