Maturation of Pseudo-Nucleus Compartment in P. aeruginosa, Infected with Giant phiKZ Phage [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The giant phiKZ phage infection induces the appearance of a pseudo-nucleus inside the bacterial cytoplasm. Here, we used RT-PCR, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), electron tomography, and analytical electron microscopy to study the morphology of ...

Differential Effect of Newly Isolated Phages Belonging to PB1-Like, phiKZ-Like and LUZ24-Like Viruses against Multi-Drug Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa under Varying Growth Conditions

open access: yesViruses, 2017
In this study, we characterize three phages (SL1 SL2, and SL4), isolated from hospital sewage with lytic activity against clinical isolates of multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR-PA).

Characterization of two related Erwinia myoviruses that are distant relatives of the PhiKZ-like Jumbo phages. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Bacteriophages are a major force in the evolution of bacteria due to their sheer abundance as well as their ability to infect and kill their hosts and to transfer genetic material.

Genomic transfer via membrane vesicle: a strategy of giant phage phiKZ for early infection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology
ABSTRACT During infection, the giant phiKZ phage forms a specialized structure at the center of the host cell called the phage nucleus. This structure is crucial for safeguarding viral DNA against bacterial nucleases and for segregating the transcriptional activities of late genes.

Nucleus-forming jumbophage PhiKZ therapeutically outcompetes non-nucleus-forming jumbophage Callisto [PDF]

open access: yesIScience
With the recent resurgence of phage therapy in modern medicine, jumbophages are currently under the spotlight due to their numerous advantages as anti-infective agents. However, most significant discoveries to date have primarily focused on nucleus-forming jumbophages, not their non-nucleus-forming counterparts. In this study, we compare the biological

DNA mapping in the capsid of giant bacteriophage phiEL (Caudovirales: Myoviridae: Elvirus) by analytical electron microscopy

open access: yesВопросы вирусологии, 2022
Introduction. Giant phiKZ-like bacteriophages have a unique protein formation inside the capsid, an inner body (IB) with supercoiled DNA molecule wrapped around it.

Effect of the Composition of Lytic Bacteriophages of P. aeruginosa Formation and Destruction of Bacterial Biofilms

open access: yesЭпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика, 2018
Relevance. Biofilms of bacteria, in particular, pathogens of purulent-septic and enteral diseases, play an important role in the development of the infectious process, resulting in 60–70% of its chronic and recurrent forms.

Novel Giant Phages vB_AerVM_332-Vera and vB_AerVM_332-Igor and Siphophage vB_AerVS_332-Yulya Infecting the Same Aeromonas veronii Strain [PDF]

open access: yesViruses
Three novel Aeromonas phages vB_AerVS_332-Yuliya, vB_AerVM_332-Vera, and vB_AerVM_332-Igor and their host Aeromonas veronii CEMTC7594 were found in the same water + sediments sample collected in a freshwater pond.
