In silico evolution of lysis-lysogeny strategies reproduces observed lysogeny propensities in temperate bacteriophages [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Bacteriophages are the most abundant organisms on the planet and both lytic and temperate phages play key roles as shapers of ecosystems and drivers of bacterial evolution.

Lysogeny in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

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 chromosome, a process called lysogeny.

An Abstraction Theory for Qualitative Models of Biological Systems [PDF]

open access: yesEPTCS 40, 2010, pp. 23-38, 2010
Multi-valued network models are an important qualitative modelling approach used widely by the biological community. In this paper we consider developing an abstraction theory for multi-valued network models that allows the state space of a model to be ...

Lysogeny in Lactobacilli [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1974
Summary: Strains of lactobacilli were examined for lysogeny after treatment with mitomycin C. Forty strains belonging to 7 species out of 148 strains of 15 species were lysed by mitomycin C. Lysis was strongly dependent upon the concentration of mitomycin C, temperature and the age of the cultures.

Isolation of a Novel Phage with Activity against Streptococcus mutans Biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
peer-reviewedStreptococcus mutans is one of the principal agents of caries formation mainly, because of its ability to form biofilms at the tooth surface.

Seasonal Trends in Lysogeny in an Appalachian Oak-hickory Forest Soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Since 1989, investigations into viral ecology have revealed how bacteriophages can influence microbial dynamics within ecosystems at global scales. Most of the information we know about temperate phages, which can integrate themselves into the host ...

Biochemical Studies of Lysogeny [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1960
SUMMARY 1. The physical characteristics of X virus obtained from ultra- violet induction of Escherichia coli K12X have been compared with those of X virus obtained by infection of the sensitive host E. coli W-1485. No significant differences were observed, and it has been concluded that the present evidence supports the view that the X virus from ...

Well-temperate phage: optimal bet-hedging against local environmental collapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Upon infection of their bacterial hosts temperate phages must chose between lysogenic and lytic developmental strategies. Here we apply the game-theoretic bet-hedging strategy introduced by Kelly to derive the optimal lysogenic fraction of the total ...

Investigating bacteriophages targeting the opportunistic pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The multi-drug resistance of the opportunistic pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii is of growing concern, with many clinical isolates proving to be resistant to last resort as well as front line antibiotic treatments.
