Replication of coliphage lambda DNA [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 1995
A general scheme of lambda phage and plasmid DNA replication in Escherichia coli is presented, and results of in vivo experiments from the authors' laboratory are superimposed. The initiator lambda O functions in the assembly of the replication complex (RC) at ori lambda, making it a stable component of this structure.

The genome and proteome of coliphage T1

open access: yesVirology, 2004
The genome of enterobacterial phage T1 has been sequenced, revealing that its 50.7-kb terminally redundant, circularly permuted sequence contains 48,836 bp of nonredundant nucleotides. Seventy-seven open reading frames (ORFs) were identified, with a high percentage of small genes located at the termini of the genomes displaying no homology to existing ...

Bacteriophages as Fecal Pollution Indicators

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Bacteriophages are promising tools for the detection of fecal pollution in different environments, and particularly for viral pathogen risk assessment.

Distribution of Coliphages in Various Foods

open access: yesJournal of Food Protection, 1986
The distribution of coliphages in various foods and the relationship between the incidences of coliphages and bacterial indicators were investigated. A total of 120 food samples comprising twelve products and including fresh meats, shellfish, vegetables and processed meats, were analyzed for indigenous coliphages using Escherichia coli hosts C, C-3000 ...

Enumeration of Somatic and F-RNA Phages as an Indicator of Fecal Contamination in Potable Water from Rural Areas of the North West Province

open access: yesPathogens, 2015
Bacteriophages are regarded as enteric viral indicators in faecally contaminated water systems and may indicate the presence of human viral pollution. They are relatively resistant to inactivation by natural and treatment processes.

Virtual Screening of Bacteriocins From Lactic Acid Bacteria Against Monkeypox DNA Polymerase: Sakacin P and Mundticin KS Emerge as Promising Candidates

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study employs an in silico virtual screening workflow to evaluate lactic acid bacteria (LAB)‐derived bacteriocins as potential inhibitors of the monkeypox virus DNA polymerase (MPDP). Protein‐peptide docking simulations using the HADDOCK platform revealed that Sakacin P and Mundticin KS possess the highest binding affinities for the MPDP target ...

Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms of Bacterial Anti‐Phage Defence Systems

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
Panoptes as an example for an antiphage system consists of OptS producing a cyclic dinucleotide that prevents activation of OptE, a transmembrane protein. Phage T4 infection introduces the sponge protein Acb2 that adsorbs the cyclic dinucleotide thus activating OptE which disrupts the cell membrane aborting phage infection.

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Phage Collection against Avian-Pathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
The increase in antibiotic-resistant avian-pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC), the causative agent of colibacillosis in poultry, warrants urgent research and the development of alternative therapies.

Reverse Genetics of Orthoflaviviruses: Strategies for Constructing Functional or Infectious cDNA

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Reverse genetics (RG) systems have transformed RNA virus research by enabling the recovery of recombinant viruses entirely from cloned cDNA. These platforms allow precise, hypothesis‐driven manipulation of viral genomes and support systematic phenotypic analyses in vitro and in vivo.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Escherichia coli and Resistance Genes in Coliphages from a Small Animal Clinic and in a Patient Dog with Chronic Urinary Tract Infection

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Antimicrobial resistance is on the rise in certain pathogens that infect pets and their owners. This has raised concerns about the use of antibiotics and the transfer of resistance elements in small animal clinics.
