Cell fate decisions emerge as phages cooperate or compete inside their host
Nature Communications, 2017 The bacteriophage lambda and its hostEscherichia coli provide a model system to study cell-fate decisions. Here, Trinh et al. develop a four-colour fluorescence system at the single-cell/single-virus/single-viral-DNA level and find phages cooperate ...

Complete Genome Sequences of Paenibacillus Larvae Phages BN12, Dragolir, Kiel007, Leyra, Likha, Pagassa, PBL1c, and Tadhana [PDF]
, 2018 We present here the complete genomes of eight phages that infect Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood in honeybees. Phage PBL1c was originally isolated in 1984 from a P.

Ion-dependent dynamics of DNA ejections for bacteriophage lambda. [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2010 We studied the control parameters that govern the dynamics of in vitro DNA ejection in bacteriophage lambda. Previous work demonstrated that bacteriophage DNA is highly pressurized, and this pressure has been hypothesized to help drive DNA ejection. Ions

454-Pyrosequencing: A Molecular Battiscope for Freshwater Viral Ecology [PDF]
, 2010 Viruses, the most abundant biological entities on the planet, are capable of infecting organisms from all three branches of life, although the majority infect bacteria where the greatest degree of cellular diversity lies.

A new topology of the HK97-like fold revealed in Bordetella bacteriophage by cryoEM at 3.5 A resolution. [PDF]
, 2013 Bacteriophage BPP-1 infects and kills Bordetella species that cause whooping cough. Its diversity-generating retroelement (DGR) provides a naturally occurring phage-display system, but engineering efforts are hampered without atomic structures.

Ultraviolet Reactivation in Bacteriophage Lambda
Journal of General Virology, 1970 Summary Reactivation of damaged phage λ v by recombination with prophage (prophage reactivation) and by u.v. irradiation of host bacteria (u.v. reactivation) were similar in that u.v.- and nitrous acid-damaged phage was reactivated in both, both were eliminated by three rec alleles, neither was much affected by hcr alleles, and both were dependent on ...
