Psyllid Cysteine Cathepsins Directly Cleave the Outer Membrane Protein BamD of Citrus Huanglongbing Pathogen

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3989-4004, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), the causative agent of citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), is transmitted by Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri; however, the role of the insect's immune effectors in defending against CLas remains poorly understood. This study reveals that D.

Phage Lytic Protein CHAPSH3b Encapsulated in Niosomes and Gelatine Films

Microorganisms
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a global health challenge, sparking worldwide interest in exploring the antimicrobial potential of natural compounds as an alternative to conventional antibiotics. In recent years, one area of focus has been the utilization of bacteriophages and their derivative proteins. Specifically, phage lytic proteins,

Biocontrol for Shrimp Disease: Comprehensive Review and a Bacterial Disease Biocontrol Practice

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biocontrol is a key strategy for disease control, as it is environmentally friendly and widely applicable. This review elaborates on biocontrol in aquaculture, particularly in shrimp culture. Biocontrol in shrimp culture mainly relies on four strategies: (i) direct kill pathogen by Bdellovibrio or bacteriophages; (ii) suppression of intestinal

Resistance gene transfer: induction of transducing phage by sub-inhibitory concentrations of antimicrobials is not correlated to induction of lytic phage

, 2017
Objectives: Horizontal gene transfer of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes between clinical isolates via transduction is poorly understood. MRSA are opportunistic pathogens resistant to all classes of antimicrobial agents but currently no strains are ...

Exploring PhaLP, an open source portal for Phage Lytic Proteins, to engineer modular enzybiotics against vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis

, 2022
Enzybiotics are considered as one of the most promising alternatives to conventional antibiotics. They are derived from enzymes used by bacteriophages to degrade the bacterial cell wall, also called phage lytic proteins.

Control of lysogeny and antiphage defense by a prophage-encoded kinase-phosphatase module

Nature Communications
The filamentous ‘Pf’ bacteriophages of Pseudomonas aeruginosa play roles in biofilm formation and virulence, but mechanisms governing Pf prophage activation in biofilms are unclear.

A lytic enzyme induced by lysozyme mutant colitis phage and from a cloned gene

, 1987
The lysozyme mutant colitis phage induced a lytic enzyme 21 min after infection of the host, Escherichia coli B. Unlike the wild phage-induced lysozyme, this lytic enzyme acted on E. coli cells but not on Micrococcus lysodeikticus cells.

“Sichuanvirus”, a novel bacteriophage viral genus, able to lyse carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

BMC Microbiology
Background Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is a severe threat for human health and urgently needs new therapeutic approaches. Lytic bacteriophages (phages) are promising clinically viable therapeutic options against CRKP.
