Single-cell analysis of lambda immunity regulation
Abstract
We have examined expression of the lambdacI operon in single cells via a rex Colon, two colons gfp substitution. Although average fluorescence agreed with expectations for expression of lambda-repressor, fluorescence fluctuated greatly from cell-to-cell. Fluctuations in repressor concentration are not predicted by previous models and are tolerated in part by a regulatory response to DNA damage.
