PhaLP: A Database for the Study of Phage Lytic Proteins and Their Evolution [PDF]

Viruses, 2021
Phage lytic proteins are a clinically advanced class of novel enzyme-based antibiotics, so-called enzybiotics. A growing community of researchers develops phage lytic proteins with the perspective of their use as enzybiotics.

Phage Lytic Enzymes [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
Phage lytic enzymes are enzymes produced by bacterial viruses, either as part of their virion to facilitate bacterial infection through local peptidoglycan degradation, or as soluble proteins to induce massive cell lysis at the end of the lytic ...

Identification of receptor-binding protein and host receptor of non-lytic dsRNA phage phiNY

Microbiology Spectrum
To date, complete genome sequences of 14 double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) phages are available, and studies have shown that the host range of dsRNA phages is limited. The hosts of most dsRNA phages belong to the genus Pseudomonas.

Phage-borne factors and host LexA regulate the lytic switch in phage GIL01. [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2011
The Bacillus thuringiensis temperate phage GIL01 does not integrate into the host chromosome but exists stably as an independent linear replicon within the cell.

Nanoparticles Influence Lytic Phage T4-like Performance In Vitro. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2022
Little is known about interactions of non-filamentous, complex-structured lytic phages and free, non-ordered nanoparticles. Emerging questions about their possible bio-sanitization co-applications or predictions of possible contact effects in the ...

Therapeutic Efficacy of Bacteriophage Therapy to Treat Carbapenem Resistant Klebsiella Pneumoniae in Mouse Model

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2021
Background: Global emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is a major public health concern. Phage therapy – application of lytic phage to kill pathogenic bacteria – is considered as one of the promising alternatives to tackle this ...

Inhibition of development of Shiga toxin-converting bacteriophages by either treatment with citrate or amino acid starvation [PDF]

, 2012
Objectives: Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are pathogenic strains, whose virulence depends on induction of Shiga toxin–converting prophages and their subsequent lytic development.
