Summary of Phage Mutants Sensitive to Physiological Levels of RexAB
| Phage mutant inhibited | Function targeted | Dysfunctiona |
|---|---|---|
| T4 rII | Recombination-dependent DNA replication |
Loss of PMF ATP hydrolyzed Macromolecular synthesis NAD leakage |
| Heteroimmune λ red | Recombination | Macromolecular synthesis (probably same as for T4 rII) |
| Heteroimmune λ ren | Unknown |
