Analyses of four new Caulobacter Phicbkviruses indicate independent lineages.
Journal of General Virology, 2019 Bacteriophages with genomes larger than 200 kbp are considered giant phages, and the giant Phicbkviruses are the most frequently isolated Caulobacter crescentus phages.

Long-term changes of bacterial and viral compositions in the intestine of a recovered Clostridium difficile patient after fecal microbiota transplantation [PDF]
, 2016 Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an effective treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile infections (RCDIs). However, long-term effects on the patients' gut microbiota and the role of viruses remain to be elucidated.

, 2017 One can hear and read it everywhere: we are in a period of antibiotic-crisis. Infections, often acquired in hospitals and termed nosocomial infections, are increasingly more difficult to treat due to a diverse repertoire of resistance mechanisms ...

, 2012 Peptidoglycan lytic enzymes (endolysins) of bacteriophages have a major role in bacterial lysis at the end of the phage replication cycle. These endolysins turned out to be potential antibacterial compounds to combat a broad range of Gram-positive ...

Virus et prophages dans les écosystèmes aquatiques
, 2009 International audienceIn this review, available data on the structure (diversity, abundance, biomass) and functional imprints (bacteriolysis, lysogeny, gene transfers, regulation of prokaryotic diversity) of natural viruses in the context of food webs in

Analyses of amber mutants of Salmonella phage SPN3US
, 2016 The giant Salmonella enterica phage SPN3US belongs to the ϕKZ-related phages which are amongst the most complex virions of prokaryotic viruses, even more complex than most eukaryotic viruses.

Characterization and Proteolytic Maturation of Head Proteins in a Giant Salmonella Virus
, 2021 Giant phages are of interest for biocontrol of pathogenic bacteria, however, there is limited knowledge about their biology. We study the Salmonella phage SPN3US to better understand virion structure and function.
