Interactions between Bacteriophages and Eukaryotic Cells
Scientifica, 2020 As the name implies, bacteriophage is a bacterium-specific virus. It infects and kills the bacterial host. Bacteriophages have gained attention as alternative antimicrobial entities in the science community in the western world since the alarming rise of

What Can We Learn from a Metagenomic Analysis of a Georgian Bacteriophage Cocktail?
Viruses, 2015 Phage therapy, a practice widespread in Eastern Europe, has untapped potential in the combat against antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. However, technology transfer to Western medicine is proving challenging. Bioinformatics analysis could help to

Relevance of the bacteriophage adherence to mucus model for Pseudomonas aeruginosa phages
Microbiology SpectrumPseudomonas aeruginosa infections are getting increasingly serious as antimicrobial resistance spreads. Phage therapy may be a solution to the problem, especially if improved by current advances on phage-host studies.

More than Simple Parasites: the Sociobiology of Bacteriophages and Their Bacterial Hosts
mBio, 2020 Bacteria harbor viruses called bacteriophages that, like all viruses, co-opt the host cellular machinery to replicate. Although this relationship is at first glance parasitic, there are social interactions among and between bacteriophages and their ...
