Phage-Phagocyte Interactions and Their Implications for Phage Application as Therapeutics

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Phagocytes are the main component of innate immunity. They remove pathogens and particles from organisms using their bactericidal tools in the form of both reactive oxygen species and degrading enzymes—contained in granules—that are potentially toxic ...

A viral genome packaging ring-ATPase is a flexibly coordinated pentamer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
In viruses, multi-subunit ring-ATPases are involved in genome packaging. Here, using single-molecule techniques, the authors determine that the active bacteriophage T4 DNA packaging motor is a pentamer and show that the motor can tolerate inactive ...

THE GROWTH OF BACTERIOPHAGE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 1939
1. An anti-Escherichia coli phage has been isolated and its behavior studied. 2. A plaque counting method for this phage is described, and shown to give a number of plaques which is proportional to the phage concentration. The number of plaques is shown to be independent of agar concentration, temperature of plate incubation, and ...

Sequencing and analysis of the DNA genome of the temperate bacteriophage Aa[Phi]23 of "Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The entire genomic sequence of the AaΦ23 bacteriophage is presented. Its size is 43,033 bp and it has an overall molar G+C content of 41mol%. 57 potential open reading frames (ORFs) were identified.

Antibiotics targeting bacterial protein synthesis reduce the lytic activity of bacteriophages

open access: yesVirus Research, 2022
Combination therapy of bacteriophages and antibiotics requires careful selection of specific antibiotics as it is crucial towards determining the success of phage therapy to treat multiple drug-resistant bacterial infections.

Application of bacteriophages [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Australia, 2017
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and decrease in the discovery rate of novel antibiotics takes mankind back to the ‘pre-antibiotic era’ and search for alternative treatments. Bacteriophages have been one of promising alternative agents which can be utilised for medicinal and biological control purposes in agriculture and related fields ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

An investigation of the properties of bacteriophage M13 and the implications for its large-scale bioprocessing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Bacteriophage are a diverse class of viruses that infect bacterial cells. As a result of over 60 years of molecular biology advances, bacteriophage today feature as candidates for vaccination, gene therapy, biomaterial and antibacterial purposes ...

The DNA Ejection Process in Bacteriophage λ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Bacteriophages have long served as model systems through which the nature of life may be explored. From a physical or mechanical point of view, phages are excellent examples of natural nanotechnology: they are nanometer-scale systems which depend ...
