  1. lysogenize

    Lysogenize refers to the process in which a bacterium is infected by a temperate bacteriophage, a type of virus that integrates its DNA into the host's bacterial cell DNA, effectively turning the bacterium into a carrier of the viral genetic material. This process allows the bacteriophage to reproduce its genetic material in sync with the host cell's reproduction, without causing immediate harm or death to the host bacterium. This bacterium-virus combination is known as a lysogen.
