Isolation, Characterization and Genomic Analysis of a Novel Jumbo Phage, AerS_266, That Infects Aeromonas salmonicida

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Aeromonas salmonicida is the causative agent of septicemia in fish, and it is associated with significant economic losses in the aquaculture industry. While piscine Aeromonas infections are mainly treated with antibiotics, the emergence of resistance in ...

Identification and Characterization of the First Virulent Phages, Including a Novel Jumbo Virus, Infecting Ochrobactrum spp.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The Ochrobactrum genus consists of an extensive repertoire of biotechnologically valuable bacterial strains but also opportunistic pathogens. In our previous study, a novel strain, Ochrobactrum sp.

Isolation and engineering of a Listeria grayi bacteriophage

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The lack of bacteriophages capable of infecting the Listeria species, Listeria grayi, is academically intriguing and presents an obstacle to the development of bacteriophage-based technologies for Listeria.

Soil Giant Phage: Genome and Biological Characteristics of Sinorhizobium Jumbo Phage

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
This paper presents the first in-depth research on the biological and genomic properties of lytic rhizobiophage AP-J-162 isolated from the soils of the mountainous region of Dagestan (North Caucasus), which belongs to the centers of origin of cultivated plants, according to Vavilov N.I. The rhizobiophage host strains are nitrogen-fixing bacteria of the

Predicting the capsid architecture of phages from metagenomic data

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
Tailed phages are viruses that infect bacteria and are the most abundant biological entities on Earth. Their ecological, evolutionary, and biogeochemical roles in the planet stem from their genomic diversity.

Characterisation of Bacteriophage-Encoded Depolymerases Selective for Key Klebsiella pneumoniae Capsular Exopolysaccharides. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Capsular polysaccharides enable clinically important clones of Klebsiella pneumoniae to cause severe systemic infections in susceptible hosts. Phage-encoded capsule depolymerases have the potential to provide an alternative treatment paradigm in patients

Integrative omics analysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa virus PA5oct highlights the molecular complexity of jumbo phages

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Pseudomonas virus vB_PaeM_PA5oct is a compelling model phage to investigate phage-bacteria interactions and is a potent candidate for phage therapy. Combining hybrid genome sequencing, RNA-Seq, and mass spectrometry of virion-associated proteins allowed ...

Development of HIV-1 rectal-specific microbicides and colonic tissue evaluation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The gastrointestinal tract is structurally and functionally different from the vagina. Thus, the paradigm of topical microbicide development and evaluation has evolved to include rectal microbicides (RMs).

Genomic, transcriptomic, and structural analysis of Pseudomonas virus PA5oct highlights the molecular complexity among Jumbo phages

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2018
Pseudomonas virus PA5oct has a large, linear, double-stranded DNA genome (287,182 bp) and is related to Escherichia phages 121Q/PBECO 4, Klebsiella phage vB_KleM-RaK2, Klebsiella phage K64-1, and Cronobacter phage vB_CsaM_GAP32. A protein-sharing network
