The Staphylococcus aureus CidA and LrgA Proteins Are Functional Holins Involved in the Transport of By-Products of Carbohydrate Metabolism

open access: yesmBio, 2022
The Staphylococcus aureus cidABC and lrgAB operons encode members of a well-conserved family of proteins thought to be involved in programmed cell death (PCD).

Lysis Timing and Bacteriophage Fitness [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2006
Abstract The effect of lysis timing on bacteriophage (phage) fitness has received little theoretical or experimental attention. Previously, the impact of lysis timing on phage fitness was studied using a theoretical model based on the marginal value theorem from the optimal foraging theory.

A Method for Rapid Polyethyleneimine-Based Purification of Bacteriophage-Expressed Proteins from Diluted Crude Lysates, Exemplified by Thermostable TP-84 Depolymerase

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Purification of bacteriophage-expressed proteins poses methodological difficulties associated with the need to process entire culture medium volume upon bacteriophage-induced bacterial cell lysis.

Bacteriophage lysis: mechanism and regulation [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1992
Bacteriophage lysis involves at least two fundamentally different strategies. Most phages elaborate at least two proteins, one of which is a murein hydrolase, or lysin, and the other is a membrane protein, which is given the designation holin in this review.

Lytic Activity of Staphylococcal Bacteriophage on Different Biotypes of Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesНауковий вісник Львівського національного університету ветеринарної медицини та біотехнологій імені С.З. Ґжицького: Серія Ветеринарні науки, 2019
Bacteriophage is a virus that infects a bacterium by injecting a phage genome into a bacterial cytoplasm and uses a host cell as a propagation mechanism. The studied models of phages show a narrow range of hosts.

Isolation and Characterization of Salmonella Jumbo-Phage pSal-SNUABM-04

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The increasing emergence of antimicrobial resistance has become a global issue. Therefore, many researchers have attempted to develop alternative antibiotics. One promising alternative is bacteriophage.

Characterization of Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteriophages, KP1 and KP12, with deep learning-based structure prediction

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Concerns over Klebsiella pneumoniae resistance to the last-line antibiotic treatment have prompted a reconsideration of bacteriophage therapy in public health.

Lysis of lysis-inhibited bacteriophage T4-infected cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1992
T4 bacteriophage (phage)-infected cells show a marked increase in latent-period length, called lysis inhibition, upon adsorption of additional T4 phages (secondary adsorption). Lysis inhibition is a complex phenotype requiring the activity of at least six T4 genes. Two basic mysteries surround our understanding of the expression of lysis inhibition: (i)

Novel bacteriophages containing a genome of another bacteriophage within their genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The work was funded by the Scottish Government’s Rural and Environment Science and Analytical Services (RESAS) DivisionA novel bacteriophage infecting Staphylococus pasteuri was isolated during a screen for phages in Antarctic soils.

Persistence of bacteriophage T4 in a starved Escherichia coli culture: evidence for the presence of phage subpopulations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bacteriophage T4 is able to adjust its development to the growth parameters of the host cell. Here, we present evidence for the production of two different subpopulations of phage particles, which differ in their ability to infect starved Escherichia ...
