The Caulobacter crescentus phage phiCbK: genomics of a canonical phage [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundThe bacteriumCaulobacter crescentusis a popular model for the study of cell cycle regulation and senescence. The large prolate siphophage phiCbK has been an important tool inC. crescentusbiology, and has been studied in its own right as a model for viral morphogenesis.

Osmotic pressure: resisting or promoting DNA ejection from phage [PDF]
Recent in vitro experiments have shown that DNA ejection from bacteriophage can be partially stopped by surrounding osmotic pressure when ejected DNA is digested by DNase I on the course of ejection.

Phage genomics: small is beautiful.
The Age of Genomics dawned only gradually for bacteriophages. It was 1977 when the genome of phage phi X174 was published and 1983 when the "large" genome of phage lambda hit the streets. More recently, the pace has quickened, so that we now have over 100 complete phage genomes and can expect thousands in a very few years.

Genome Sequence of Gordonia Phage Yvonnetastic [PDF]
ABSTRACT Gordonia bacteriophage Yvonnetastic was isolated from soil in Pittsburgh, PA, using Gordonia terrae 3612 as a host. Yvonnetastic has siphoviral morphology and a genome of 98,136 bp, with 198 predicted protein-coding genes and five tRNA genes.

Genome Sequence of Salmonella Phage χ
ABSTRACT Salmonella bacteriophage χ is a member of the Siphoviridae family that gains entry into its host cells by adsorbing to their flagella. We report the complete 59,578-bp sequence of the genome of phage χ, which together with its relatives, exemplifies a largely unexplored type of tailed ...

Physical Model of the Immune Response of Bacteria Against Bacteriophage Through the Adaptive CRISPR-Cas Immune System [PDF]
Bacteria and archaea have evolved an adaptive, heritable immune system that recognizes and protects against viruses or plasmids. This system, known as the CRISPR-Cas system, allows the host to recognize and incorporate short foreign DNA or RNA sequences,
