Tracking epidemic viruses in wastewaters

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2024.
Wastewater‐based epidemiology has emerged as a highly powerful, innovative, flexible, cost‐effective, and scalable tool for pathogen surveillance, which has been successfully used for monitoring various diseases. Abstract Classical epidemiology relies on incidence, mortality rates, and clinical data from individual testing, which can be challenging for

Complete genome sequence of the lytic Pseudomonas fluorescens phage ϕIBB-PF7A

Virology Journal, 2011
Background Phage ϕIBB-PF7A is a T7-like bacteriophage capable of infecting several Pseudomonas fluorescens dairy isolates and is extremely efficient in lysing this bacterium even when growing in biofilms attached to surfaces.

Comprehensive analysis of predominant pathogenic bacteria and viruses in seafood products

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 4, July 2024.
Abstract Given the growing global demand for seafood, it is imperative to conduct a comprehensive study on the prevalence and persistence patterns of pathogenic bacteria and viruses associated with specific seafood varieties. This assessment thoroughly examines the safety of seafood products, considering the diverse processing methods employed in the ...

Polyvalent Coliphages in Sewage

Water Science and Technology, 1991
High concentrations of coliphages were isolated during December and March when the maximum average daytime temperature reaches 20°C. Eight coliphages capable of infecting various strains of E. coli and a few selected members of Enterobacteriaceae were isolated.

A nuclease domain fused to the Snf2 helicase confers antiphage defence in coral‐associated Halomonas meridiana

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2024.
Snf2‐related helicases from corals‐associated Halomonas meridiana mediate phage defence. We have characterized a novel defence gene hmaA, which encode a nickase activity containing helicase for defence against Escherichia coli phage T4. The analysis of the hma region reveals an insertion hot spot for defence systems and predicts the presence of several

High-resolution cryo-EM structure of the Pseudomonas bacteriophage E217

Nature Communications, 2023
E217 is a Pseudomonas phage used in an experimental cocktail to eradicate cystic fibrosis-associated Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Here, we describe the structure of the whole E217 virion before and after DNA ejection at 3.1 Å and 4.5 Å resolution ...

Isolation and characterization of a phage collection against Pseudomonas putida

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 6, June 2024.
This study presents the first collection of bacteriophages isolated specifically to act against the common laboratory strain, Pseudomonas putida PaW85. The collection comprises 67 double‐stranded DNA phages, which are classified into 22 species and 9 genera.

Redefining the bacteriophage mv4 site‐specific recombination system and the sequence specificity of its attB and core‐attP sites

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 1200-1216, June 2024.
While hundreds of mobile genetic elements utilising tyrosine recombinases (YRs) for integration and excision from bacterial genomes have been identified in databases, less than a dozen have been described in detail. Using in vitro recombination of randomized DNA libraries and high‐throughput sequencing analyses, we have characterised the recombination ...
