The characteristic and potential therapeutic effect of isolated multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii lytic phage

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2022
Background Widespread misuse of antibiotics caused bacterial resistance increasingly become a serious threat. Bacteriophage therapy promises alternative treatment strategies for combatting drug-resistant bacterial infections.

Phage-Borne Factors and Host LexA Regulate the Lytic Switch in Phage GIL01 [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2011
ABSTRACT The Bacillus thuringiensis temperate phage GIL01 does not integrate into the host chromosome but exists stably as an independent linear replicon within the cell. Similar to that of the lambdoid prophages, the lytic cycle of GIL01 is induced as part of the cellular SOS response to DNA damage ...

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.

The intron-containing genome of the lytic Pseudomonas phage LUZ24 resembles the temperate phage PaP3

Virology, 2008
The virulent Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage LUZ24 (45,625 bp) was isolated from hospital sewage. It belongs to the family of the Podoviridae, and carries a bidirectionally transcribed dsDNA genome delineated by two direct terminal repeats of 184 bp.

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 ...

A broad-host-range lytic phage vB_VhaS-R18L as a candidate against vibriosis. [PDF]

Front Microbiol, 2023
Vibriosis is one of the most common bacterial diseases that cause high rates of mortality and considerable economic losses in aquaculture. Phage therapy has been considered as a promising alternative method to antibiotics in the biocontrol of infectious ...

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.

Phage vB_BsuP-Goe1: the smallest identified lytic phage ofBacillus subtilis [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2016
Currently, interest in phage science is on the rise again as this subject remains largely unexplored, and its potential diversity mainly untapped. Here, we present phage vB_BsuP-Goe1, a new isolate that infects Bacillus subtilis The phage forms round plaques with a matt outline on agar plates containing a B. subtilis Δ6 lawn.
