Linking the lytic and lysogenic bacteriophage cycles to environmental conditions, host physiology and their variability in coastal lagoons

open access: closedEnvironmental 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]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
The 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.

Characterization of Mu-Like Yersinia Phages Exhibiting Temperature Dependent Infection

open access: yesMicrobiology 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.

Inference of the Life Cycle of Environmental Phages from Genomic Signature Distances to Their Hosts

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The environmental impact of uncultured phages is shaped by their preferred life cycle (lytic or lysogenic). However, our ability to predict it is very limited.

Characterization of a New Temperate Escherichia coli Phage vB_EcoP_ZX5 and Its Regulatory Protein

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
The study of the interaction between temperate phages and bacteria is vital to understand their role in the development of human diseases. In this study, a novel temperate Escherichia coli phage, vB_EcoP_ZX5, with a genome size of 39,565 bp, was isolated

BACPHLIP: predicting bacteriophage lifestyle from conserved protein domains [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Bacteriophages are broadly classified into two distinct lifestyles: temperate and virulent. Temperate phages are capable of a latent phase of infection within a host cell (lysogenic cycle), whereas virulent phages directly replicate and lyse host cells ...

Characterization of Temperate LPS-Binding Bordetella avium Phages That Lack Superinfection Immunity

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Bordetella avium causes a highly infectious upper respiratory tract disease in turkeys and other poultry with high economic losses. Considering the antimicrobial resistance crisis, bacteriophages (phages) may be an alternative approach for treating ...

The Life Cycle Transitions of Temperate Phages: Regulating Factors and Potential Ecological Implications

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Phages are viruses that infect bacteria. They affect various microbe-mediated processes that drive biogeochemical cycling on a global scale. Their influence depends on whether the infection is lysogenic or lytic.
