Beta-lactam antibiotics cause bacterial cells to undergo this, which names a class of phages that undergo a cycle contrasted with the lysogenic one.
Expression of the cro gene promotes this process, which is catalyzed by alkalines and makes up the first step in extracting plasmid DNA during miniprep. An enzyme named for this phenomenon hydrolyzes N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine glycosidic linkages in peptidoglycan. Sonication causes this process. Because it can occur when a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, paramecia have contractile vacuoles to prevent this process. Beta-lactam antibiotics cause bacterial cells to undergo this, which names a class of phages that undergo a cycle contrasted with the lysogenic one. For 10 points, name this phenomenon in which a cell bursts open.
