Determinants of bacteriophage 933W repressor DNA binding specificity.
PLoS ONE, 2012 We reported previously that 933W repressor apparently does not cooperatively bind to adjacent sites on DNA and that the relative affinities of 933W repressor for its operators differ significantly from that of any other lambdoid bacteriophage.

On the Occurrence and Multimerization of Two-Polypeptide Phage Endolysins Encoded in Single Genes
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Bacteriophages (phages) and other viruses are extremely efficient in packing their genetic information, with several described cases of overlapping genes encoded in different open reading frames (ORFs).

Bacteriophage Adsorption Rate and Optimal Lysis Time [PDF]
Genetics, 2008 Abstract The first step of bacteriophage (phage) infection is the attachment of the phage virion onto a susceptible host cell. This adsorption process is usually described by mass-action kinetics, which implicitly assume an equal influence of host density and adsorption rate on the adsorption process.

Design and evaluation of bacteriophage production for potential commercial use [PDF]
, 2011 The purpose of this research was to evaluate the production of bacteriophages in a commercial plant. Bacteriophage K, a broad host range bacteriophage which is active against a wide range of staphylococci including MRSA, was used as a typical ...

The lysis of dead bacteria by bacteriophage.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1926 There is no difference of opinion that only young and actively growing bacteria are subject to transmissible lysis. Old or dead bacteria do not undergo lysis and do not contribute to the increase in concentration of the active lytic substance, but rather, on the contrary, bring about a measurable reduction of it.Recently, Twort1 has stated (somewhat ...

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 ...

PLoS ONE, 2022 Holins are bacteriophage-encoded transmembrane proteins that function to control the timing of bacterial lysis event, assist with the destabilization of the membrane proton motive force and in some models, generate large "pores" in the cell membrane to ...

Propagating the missing bacteriophages: a large bacteriophage in a new class
Virology Journal, 2007 The number of successful propagations/isolations of soil-borne bacteriophages is small in comparison to the number of bacteriophages observed by microscopy (great plaque count anomaly).
