In this paper, we study the natural star-operation defined by the set of associated primes of principal ideals of an integral domain, which is called the g-operation. We are mainly concerned with the ideal-theoretic properties of this star-operation. In particular, we investigate DG-domains (i.e., integral domains in which each ideal is a g-ideal), which form a proper subclass of the DW-domains. In order to provide some original examples, we examine the transfer of the DG-property to pullbacks. As an application of the g-operation, it is shown that w-divisorial Mori domains can be seen as a Gorenstein analogue of Krull domains.
