AimR Adopts Preexisting Dimer Conformations for Specific Target Recognition in Lysis-Lysogeny Decisions of Bacillus Phage phi3T

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
A bacteriophage switches between lytic and lysogenic life cycles. The AimR-AimP-AimX communication system is responsible for phage lysis-lysogeny decisions during the infection of Bacillus subtilis.

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 ...

Viruses may facilitate the cyanobacterial blooming during summer bloom succession in Xiangxi Bay of Three Gorges Reservoir, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms in summer are frequently accompanied by the succession of phytoplankton communities in freshwater. However, little is known regarding the roles of viruses in the succession, such as in huge reservoirs.

Calculating Biological Behaviors of Epigenetic States in Phage lambda Life Cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Gene regulatory network of lambda phage is one the best studied model systems in molecular biology. More 50 years of experimental study has provided a tremendous amount of data at all levels: physics, chemistry, DNA, protein, and function.

Single Cell Genomics-Based Analysis of Gene Content and Expression of Prophages in a Diffuse-Flow Deep-Sea Hydrothermal System

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Phage–host interactions likely play a major role in the composition and functioning of many microbiomes, yet remain poorly understood. Here, we employed single cell genomics to investigate phage–host interactions in a diffuse-flow, low-temperature ...

Contrasting Impact of Viral Activity on Prokaryotic Populations in the Coastal and Offshore Regions of the Eastern Arabian Sea

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Viral processes in the coastal and offshore regions of the Eastern Arabian Sea (west coast of India) and their contribution of viral lysis to the organic carbon and nitrogen pool was examined.

The influence of the accessory genome on bacterial pathogen evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bacterial pathogens exhibit significant variation in their genomic content of virulence factors. This reflects the abundance of strategies pathogens evolved to infect host organisms by suppressing host immunity.

Lysogeny in Leuconostoc oenos [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1991
Thirty strains of Leuconostoc oenos were exposed to mitomycin C to induce lysogenic bacteriophages. Lysis curves typical for lysogenic strains were obtained with 19 strains. Indicator strans were found for 17 of these phages. Five were characterized by electron microscopy, lytic spectrum, molecular masses of the proteins, sequencing of five N-terminal ...

In silico Evolution of Lysis-Lysogeny Strategies Reproduces Observed Lysogeny Propensities in Temperate Bacteriophages

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.
