Defective bacteriophages

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 1970
AbstractNaturally occurring defective phage particles, which do not form plaques on any known host, but have a restricted host killing range, appear to be widely distributed. The defective phages are produced spontaneously but can be induced, at much higher levels, by chemical and physical agents which interfere with metabolism or structure of DNA. The

Bacteriophage populations

2005
Bacteriophages are ubiquitous to the rumen ecosystem; they have a role in nitrogen metabolism through bacterial lysis in the rumen, they may help to regulate bacterial population densities, be an agent for genetic exchange and be of use in biocontrol of bacterial populations through phage therapy [10, 11, 19]. In Chapter 2.1, classical methodologies to

The Bacteriophage Mu

2005
Abstract Mu was the first mobile genetic element identified in prokaryotes. Since its first isolation, in 1963, it has attracted the interest of many biologists. This interest is a consequence of its double nature: Mu is both a bacteriophage and a transposon. Studies on Mu began when L.

Jumbo Bacteriophages

2009
There is currently a handful of genome sequences available for tailed bacteriophages with genomes of more than 200 kbp of DNA, designated here as giant or jumbo phages. The majority of the proteins predicted from the genome sequences of these phages have no matches in the current sequence databases, and the genomes themselves are diverse enough to ...

Chlamydia bacteriophages

Archives of Microbiology, 2013
Phages are called "good viruses" due to their ability to infect and kill pathogenic bacteria. Chlamydia are small, Gram-negative (G-) microbes that can be dangerous to human and animals. In humans, these bacteria are etiological agents of diseases such as psittacosis or respiratory tract diseases, while in animals, the infection may result in enteritis

Bacteriophage endolysins

In the last phase of their life cycle, bacteriophages form lytic enzymes known as bacteriophage endolysins that destroy the bacterial cell wall and liberate new virions. Endolysins have emerged as high-scope antimicrobial agents, especially against Gram-positive infections, due to their specificity, rapid action, and ability to target essential cell ...

Multiplication of Bacteriophage

Nature, 1948
As part of a study of how viruses grow, we have been, making series of electron micrographs which demonstrate essential steps in the multiplication of the virus-like bacteriophages.

Bacteriophage structure

Electron Microscopy Reviews, 1992
The purpose of this review is to provide information of the role played by electron microscopy in respect of bacteriophage structure. This 40 years' "love story" between phages and microscopy was a valuable contribution to the progress of scientific knowledge in molecular biology.

The Properties of Bacteriophages

1953
Publisher Summary Intensive study of bacteriophages during the past 15 years has shown fairly conclusively that the phages are the most promising objects of study for virologists seeking basic information about the life cycle of viruses. The rather well-known evidence for the preceding statement rests upon the fact that: (1) the host, the bacterium ...
