The Host R‐M Systems Change the Host Range of Staphylococcus Phage EBHT

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
The study shows how Staphylococcal restriction–modification (R‐M) systems methylate the phage genomic DNA and change the phage host range. The host R‐M systems should be considered when selecting phage manufacturing hosts, as the manufacturing host with a higher yield can result in a narrower phage host range.

Interferometric observations of M42 at 1.3 CM

The Astronomical Journal, 1989
New interferometric observations of the central 4.5 deg of M42 have been made at 1.3 cm with the NRO Millimeter-Wave Array. Distribution of the radio source consists of two known components. One is centered on the Trapezium stars, and the other corresponds to the bright bar.
