Diversity of Sinorhizobium (Ensifer) meliloti Bacteriophages in the Rhizosphere of Medicago marina: Myoviruses, Filamentous and N4-Like Podovirus [PDF]
Using different Sinorhizobium meliloti strains as hosts, we isolated eight new virulent phages from the rhizosphere of the coastal legume Medicago marina.

Phage lytic enzymes: a history
There are many recent studies regarding the efficacy of bacteriophage-related lytic enzymes: the enzymes of 'bacteria-eaters' or viruses that infect bacteria. By degrading the cell wall of the targeted bacteria, these lytic enzymes have been shown to efficiently lyse Gram-positive bacteria without affecting normal flora and non-related bacteria. Recent

Wide Host Range and Strong Lytic Activity ofStaphylococcusaureusLytic Phage Stau2 [PDF]
ABSTRACTIn searching for an alternative antibacterial agent against multidrug-resistantStaphylococcusaureus, we have isolated and characterized a lytic staphylophage, Stau2. It possesses a double-stranded DNA genome estimated to be about 134.5 kb and a morphology resembling that of members of the familyMyoviridae. With an estimated latency period of 25

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

Transfer of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is a serious human pathogen with remarkable adaptive powers. Antibiotic-resistant clones rapidly emerge mainly by acquisition of antibiotic-resistance genes from other S. aureus strains or even from other genera.

Role of temperate phage in determining lytic phage sensitivity and serotype of Vibrio cholerae [PDF]
The effect of lysogenization with five temperate phages from various sources on serotype and lytic phage sensitivity was investigated in six cultures of Vibrio cholerae of both classical and El Tor biotypes. No changes in serotype or in classical phage sensitivity in the classical biotype were observed.

Bacteriophages and their structural organisation [PDF]
Viruses are extremely small infectious particles that are not visible in a light microscope, and are able to pass through fine porcelain filters. They exist in a huge variety of forms and infect practically all living systems: animals, plants ...
