Molecular Characterisation of Bacteriophage K Towards Applications for the Biocontrol of Pathogenic Staphylococci [PDF]

, 2006
End of project reportThe aim of this work was to characterise staphylococcal bacteriophage (a bacterial virus) and to assess their potential as therapeutic agents against pathogenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus, particularly mastitis-causing strains.

Complete Genome Sequences of Paenibacillus Larvae Phages BN12, Dragolir, Kiel007, Leyra, Likha, Pagassa, PBL1c, and Tadhana [PDF]

, 2018
We present here the complete genomes of eight phages that infect Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood in honeybees. Phage PBL1c was originally isolated in 1984 from a P.

A reverse transcriptase controls prophage genome reduction to promote phage dissemination in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms

Cell Reports
Summary: Filamentous bacteriophages play a critical role in biofilm formation and virulence in the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Here, studies of the filamentous Pf4 prophage life cycle within P.

Isolation of a Novel Phage OTooleKemple52 [PDF]

, 2017
A bacteriophage is a virus capable of infecting bacteria like ubiquitous soil-dwelling genus Bacillus. Within the Bacillus genus, there is the “ACT family” made up of B. thuringiensis, B. cereus, and B.

Measuring the force ejecting DNA from phage [PDF]

, 2004
We discuss how a balance can be established between the force acting to eject DNA from viral capsids and the force resisting its entry into a colloidal suspension which mimics the host cell cytoplasm.

The use of genomic signature distance between bacteriophages and their hosts displays evolutionary relationships and phage growth cycle determination

Virology Journal, 2010
Background Bacteriophage classification is mainly based on morphological traits and genome characteristics combined with host information and in some cases on phage growth lifestyle.
