Prophage Gifsy-1 Induction in Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Reduces Persister Cell Formation after Ciprofloxacin Exposure

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Persister cells are drug-tolerant bacteria capable of surviving antibiotic treatment despite the absence of heritable resistance mechanisms. It is generally thought that persister cells survive antibiotic exposure through the implementation of stress ...

Phage strategies facilitate bacterial coexistence under environmental variability [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Bacterial communities are often exposed to temporal variations in resource availability, which exceed bacterial generation times and thereby affect bacterial coexistence.

The role of bacteriophages in shaping bacterial composition and diversity in the human gut

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The microbiota of the gut has continued to co-evolve alongside their human hosts conferring considerable health benefits including the production of nutrients, drug metabolism, modulation of the immune system, and playing an antagonistic role against ...

Lysogeny in Streptococcus pneumoniae

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Bacterial viruses, or bacteriophages, are major contributors to the evolution, pathogenesis and overall biology of their host bacteria. During their life cycle, temperate bacteriophages form stable associations with their host by integrating into the ...

Phage lytic infection cycle.

open access: yes, 2023
The phage infection cycle. This flows counterclockwise in the figure, starting from the upper left. (1) Phage attachment to receptor molecules found on bacteria [29,30] is typically described as processes of virion adsorption [31,32] with uptake ...

Quorum Sensing and Metabolic State of the Host Control Lysogeny-Lysis Switch of Bacteriophage T1

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Bacterial viruses, or bacteriophages, are highly abundant in the biosphere and have a major impact on microbial populations. Many examples of phage interactions with their hosts, including establishment of dormant lysogenic and active lytic states, have ...

Identification of genes expressed in cultures of E. coli lysogens carrying the Shiga toxin-encoding prophage Φ24B

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Shigatoxigenic E. coli are a global and emerging health concern. Shiga toxin, Stx, is encoded on the genome of temperate, lambdoid Stx phages. Genes essential for phage maintenance and replication are encoded on approximately 50% of the genome,

Metagenomic analysis reveals unexplored diversity of archaeal virome in the human gut

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The human gut microbiome has been extensively explored, while the archaeal viruses remain largely unknown. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of the archaeal viruses from the human gut metagenomes and the existing virus collections using the ...
