Editing Lambda phage (section)

===== Leftward transcription process =====

# Lambda phage inserts chromosome into the cytoplasm of the host bacterial cell.
# The phage chromosome is inserted to the host bacterial chromosome through DNA ligase.
# Transcription of the phage chromosome proceeds leftward when the host RNA polymerase attaches to promotor site ''p''L resulting in the translation of gene ''N.''
## Gene N acts a regulatory gene that results in RNA polymerase being unable to recognize translation-termination sites.<ref name="pmid6241940">{{cite journal | vauthors = Brammar WJ, Hadfield C | title = A programme for the construction of a lambda phage | journal = Journal of Embryology and Experimental Morphology | volume = 83 | issue = Suppl | pages = 75–88 | date = November 1984 | pmid = 6241940 | doi = | url = }}</ref>
