Hi‐C Links Reveal Viral Activity and Infection Within the Free‐Living Microbial Community of a Secondary Chlorophyll Maximum in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
Hi‐C sequencing was used to link viral sequences with microbial metagenome assembled genomes in the largely uncultivated waters of an oxygen‐deficient zone's secondary chlorophyll maximum within the Eastern Tropical North Pacific Ocean. ABSTRACT Oxygen‐deficient zones (ODZs) influence global nitrogen cycling as key sites for the removal of bioavailable

Defense Systems and Prophage Detection in Streptococcus mutans Strains

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 57-68, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Although the species is extensively studied, limited data are available on antiphage defense systems (APDSs) in Streptococcus mutans. The present study aimed to explore the diversity and the occurrence of APDSs and to search for prophages in the genomes of clinical isolates of S. mutans using bioinformatics tools.

Making serine integrases work for us [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
DNA site-specific recombinases are enzymes (often associated with mobile DNA elements) that catalyse breaking and rejoining of DNA strands at specific points, thereby bringing about precise genetic rearrangements.

Bacteriophage and Fusidic Acid Have Synergistic Effect Against Meticillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in Ex Vivo Canine Dermis Model

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 200-210, April 2026.
Background: Antimicrobial stewardship has become vital given the progressive emergence of multidrug‐resistant bacteria, and novel approaches to the treatment of bacterial infections are needed. Recently, reported synergistic effects of antibacterial drugs and bacteriophage therapy have revealed promising applications for the management of meticillin ...

Bacteriophages limit the existence conditions for conjugative plasmids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Bacteriophages are a major cause of bacterial mortality and impose strong selection on natural bacterial populations, yet their effects on the dynamics of conjugative plasmids have rarely been tested.
