Prophages and their interactions with lytic phages in the human gut microbiota and their impact on microbial diversity, gut health, and disease

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Bacteriophages (phages), the dominant prokaryotic viruses that specifically target bacteria in the human gut microbiome, play a crucial role in maintaining intestinal balance, regulating bacterial populations, and preserving microbial diversity within ...

Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Two Novel Enterobacter Phages With EDTA‐Enhanced Antibiofilm Activity

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Two novel lytic Enterobacter phages, HHH and RZH, displayed targeted antibiofilm activity against MDR Enterobacter cloacae complex biofilms when combined with EDTA. Activity was strongest within a narrow low‐millimolar EDTA window, reducing biofilm biomass and viable burden, while higher EDTA concentrations shifted the interaction towards antagonism ...

Cryptic Lysogeny in Proteus mirabilis

Journal of General Virology, 1973
Summary Proteus mirabilis strains 13 and 5006 on rare occasions liberate temperate phages, 13M and 5006M, which may reinfect parent strains. These prophages are not inducible but the probability of phage liberation may be increased by growth in nitrosoguanidine. P. mirabilis strain 34 liberates a phage, φ34, spontaneously. Strain 34 is doubly lysogenic

Interrogating the Escherichia coli Epitranscriptome Via CRISPR Interference and Nanopore Native RNA Sequencing

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Epitranscriptomics is understudied in bacteria but has the ability to modulate antimicrobial resistance, virulence and pathogenicity. Pitt et al. implement two cutting‐edge techniques: CRISPR interference and Nanopore direct RNA sequencing along with functional assays to study RNA modifications in Escherichia coli.

Post‐Microbial Therapeutics for the Next Generation of Medicine

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Post‐microbial therapeutics: from microbial perturbation to host benefit. Post‐microbial therapeutics provide a function‐centered framework that links targeted microbial perturbation to changes in microbial modules and metabolites, followed by measurable host responses. Phages and phage‐derived interventions can selectively modify bacterial populations

Modular Metalloprotein Nanowires With Semiconductor‐Scale Conductivity and Tunable Redox Behavior

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Conductive protein nanowires are built by aligning three different metalloproteins along an ultrastable filament scaffold. The resulting micrometer‐length nanowires reach conductivities of 1.75 S cm−1. Redox behavior is set by the metalloprotein chosen, while conductivity is governed by the spacing the scaffold imposes, making both independently ...

Genomic and Phenotypic Classification of Staphylococcus Species Isolated From Delhi Air

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Multiple Staphylococcus spp. were isolated from the outdoor polluted air of the Indian Capital, New Delhi. The bacterial samples were collected from 6 different locations, and the whole genome of four Staphylococcus isolates was sequenced in their entirety. This study presents the comparative genomic analysis of these four isolates.

Depletion of m6A-RNA in Escherichia coli reduces the infectious potential of T5 bacteriophage

Microbiology Spectrum
N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification of mRNA in eukaryotes that plays, among other mechanisms, an essential role in virus replication.
