Uneven host cell growth causes lysogenic virus induction in the Baltic Sea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 In the Baltic Sea redoxcline, lysogenic viruses infecting prokaryotes have rarely been detected using the commonly used inducing agent mitomycin C. However, it is well known that not all viruses are induceable by mitomycin C and growing evidence suggests

Characterization of Mu-Like Yersinia Phages Exhibiting Temperature Dependent Infection
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Yersinia pestis is the etiological agent of plague. Marmota himalayana of the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau is the primary host of flea-borne Y. pestis. This study is the report of isolation of Mu-like bacteriophages of Y. pestis from M. himalayana.

The Induction of the Lytic Cycle in Lysogenic Bacteria by Phagolessin A 58 [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1956 SUMMARY: Phagolessin A58, an antibiotic having antiphage activity, was found to have an action which induced the lytic cycle in some strains of lysogenic bacteria. Four different lysogenic organisms were tested: Bacillus megaterium 899; Escherichia coli FCb; E. coli Temple; E. coli Lampert.

Molecular and biochemical analysis of the system regulating the lytic/lysogenic cycle in the pneumococcal temperate phage MM1 [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2003 The temperate phage MM1 forms stable lysogens in Streptococcus pneumoniae. We report here the first characterization of the lysogenic control region in Pneumococcus which contains two functional divergent promoters (P(R) and P(L)). MM1 encodes a 14-kDa cI protein (CI) that appears to be responsible for maintaining the lysogenic state in Pneumococcus ...

Biofilm spatial structure and superinfection immunity modulate inter-phage competition. [PDF]
PLoS BiologyObligately lytic (virulent) phages always lyse host cells to release progeny viruses, while temperate phages can either lyse their hosts or integrate into host genomes as prophages, forming lysogens.

Virus Research, 2014 Expression of bacteriophage A2-encoded cro in Escherichia coli gives rise to two co-linear polypeptides, Cro and Cro*, which were proposed to form a regulatory tandem to modulate the frequency with which the phage would choose between the lytic and the lysogenic cycles. In this communication, it is reported that Cro is the canonical product of the gene

Virology, 1999 Lysogenic induction of temperate bacteriophage A2 of Lactobacillus casei is controlled by the action of its cI and cro products at the phage operator region. Three 20-bp inverted repeated DNA segments (subsites O1, O2, and O3) and the two divergent (PL and PR) promoters were mapped within the 153-bp operator region.

Environmental Microbiology, 2013 Summary Changes in environmental conditions and prokaryote physiology can strongly affect the dynamics of both the lysogenic and lytic bacteriophage replication cycles in aquatic systems. However, it remains unclear whether it is the nature, amplitude or frequency of these changes that alter the phage replication ...

Precision targeting of genetic variations in mixed bacterial cultures using CRISPR-Cas12a-programmed λ phages [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyThe CRISPR-Cas system, an adaptive immune mechanism in prokaryotes against bacteriophages, has been developed into a versatile tool for recognizing and cleaving target nucleic acid sequences.
