Expanding Horizons in Phage Therapy: Addressing Antibiotic Resistance in Aquaculture

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture has emerged as a cornerstone of global food security, yet its rapid intensification has precipitated widespread bacterial disease outbreaks and escalating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This review critically examines the limitations of conventional antibiotic use in aquaculture, highlighting regulatory inconsistencies ...

Solubilization and functional analysis of the lambda holin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The 105aa lambda S protein is the prototype holin, S accumulates in the cytoplasmic membrane during late gene expression until, at a time programmed into its primary structure, it disrupts the membrane and allows the lambda lysozyme, R, to attack the ...

Conjugative Transfer of Disease‐Encoding Plasmid Variants in Serratia spp. Alter Production of Enzymes and Virulence Properties

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Analysis of plasmid transconjugants relative to plasmid‐free and plasmid‐carrying Serratia spp. demonstrates erratic disease phenotypes and reduced fitness. Transconjugants also show reduced ability to degrade substrates associated with virulence, supported by transcriptomic data.

Holin locus characterisation from lysogenic Xenorhabdus nematophila and its involvement in Escherichia coli SheA haemolytic phenotype.

open access: yes, 2003
Lysogeny has previously been described in the entomopathogenic bacteria of the genus Xenorhabdus. Screening of a X. nematophila prophage DNA library on blood agar resulted in the identification of a 5.7-kb locus that caused a haemolytic phenotype when ...

Factors influencing lysis time stochasticity in bacteriophage λ

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2011
Background Despite identical genotypes and seemingly uniform environments, stochastic gene expression and other dynamic intracellular processes can produce considerable phenotypic diversity within clonal microbes.

Characterisation of a Novel Jumbo Lytic Aeromonas dhakensis Bacteriophage P19 and Its Endolysin

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
A jumbo, lytic myovirus phage P19 against multidrug‐resistant (MDR) Aeromonas dhakensis was isolated from river water. P19 demonstrated robust lytic activity, high thermal and pH stability (pH 6–10, up to 60°C), and no genes associated with lysogeny, virulence or antimicrobial resistance. ORF_358 of P19 encodes for T4‐type lysozyme.

Characterization of Borrelia Burgdorferi BlyA and BlyB Proteins: a Prophage-Encoded Holin-Like System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The conserved cp32 plasmid family of Borrelia burgdorferi was recently shown to be packaged into a bacteriophage particle (C. H. Eggers and D. S. Samuels, J. Bacteriol.

Ekstrakcija fenolnih jedinjenja iz propolisa primenom prirodnih eutektičkih smeša na bazi holin-hlorida, prolina i glicina

open access: yes, 2022
Eutektičke smeše su smeše čija je temperatura topljenja niža nego temperatura topljenja pojedinačnih komponenti koje je izgrađuju. Primarni biljni metaboliti grade eutektičke smeše koje „imitiraju ekstracelularnu tečnost u biljkama” u kojoj su rastvoreni

Harnessing Viruses Against Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria: Exploring the Potential of Bacteriophage‐Based Drug Discovery

open access: yesAdvanced Gut &Microbiome Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The global escalation of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria necessitates alternative antimicrobial strategies beyond conventional antibiotics. Bacteriophage therapy has re‐emerged as a promising intervention, offering targeted bacterial killing with minimal disruption to host microbiota. This review evaluates the therapeutic potential of bacteriophages

Food-grade controlled lysis of Lactococcus lactis for accelerated cheese ripening [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
An attractive approach to accelerate cheese ripening is to induce lysis of Lactococcus lactis starter strains for facilitated release of intracellular enzymes involved in flavor formation.
