Revisiting Bistability in the Lysis/Lysogeny Circuit of Bacteriophage Lambda [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The lysis/lysogeny switch of bacteriophage lambda serves as a paradigm for binary cell fate decision, long-term maintenance of cellular state and stimulus-triggered switching between states. In the literature, the system is often referred to as "bistable.

Factors influencing lysis time stochasticity in bacteriophage λ [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2011 Background Despite identical genotypes and seemingly uniform environments, stochastic gene expression and other dynamic intracellular processes can produce considerable phenotypic diversity within clonal microbes.

An Optimal Lysis Time Maximizes Bacteriophage Fitness in Quasi-Continuous Culture [PDF]
mBio, 2022 Optimality models have a checkered history in evolutionary biology. While optimality models have been successful in providing valuable insight into the evolution of a wide variety of biological traits, a common objection is that optimality models are ...

Testing Optimality With Experimental Evolution: Lysis Time in a Bacteriophage. [PDF]
Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 2007 Optimality models collapse the vagaries of genetics into simple trade-offs to calculate phenotypes expected to evolve by natural selection. Optimality approaches are commonly criticized for this neglect of genetic details, but resolution of this disagreement has been difficult.

Diversity in Bacterial Lysis Systems: Bacteriophages Show the Way. [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2013 Bacteriophages have developed multiple host cell lysis strategies to promote release of descendant virions from infected bacteria. This review is focused on the lysis mechanisms employed by tailed double-stranded DNA bacteriophages, where new developments have recently emerged. These phages seem to use a least common denominator to induce lysis, the so-

Quorum Sensing and Metabolic State of the Host Control Lysogeny-Lysis Switch of Bacteriophage T1.
MBio, 2019 Bacterial viruses, or bacteriophages, are highly abundant in the biosphere and have a major impact on microbial populations. Many examples of phage interactions with their hosts, including establishment of dormant lysogenic and active lytic states, have ...

Campylobacter Bacteriophage Infection at Refrigeration Temperatures
Applied Microbiology, 2023 The application of bacteriophages to control foodborne bacterial pathogens in foods has gained traction in recent years. Poultry meat is a major source of Campylobacter jejuni, and a target for the application of bacteriophages.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 A lytic Yersinia pestis phage vB_YpP-YepMm (also named YepMm for briefly) was first isolated from the bone marrow of a Marmota himalayana who died of natural causes on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau in China. Based on its morphologic (isometric hexagonal head

Endolysin Regulation in Phage Mu Lysis
mBio, 2022 Bacteriophage Mu is a paradigm coliphage studied mainly because of its use of transposition for genome replication. However, in extensive nonsense mutant screens, only one lysis gene has been identified, the endolysin gp22.

Broad lytic spectrum of novel Salmonella phages on ciprofloxacin-resistant Salmonella contaminated in the broiler production chain [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2022 Background and Aim: Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is recommended for salmonellosis treatment as the drug of choice; however, overuse of this drug can cause drug resistance issues and failure to treat diseases.
