PhiKZ baseplate structure

open access: yes
PhiKZ is a bacteriophage that infects Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic human pathogen. The phage phiKZ is known for its large genome and complex structure, making it a notable subject for structural biology studies. Among all its parts, the baseplate is the most complex. It adheres to the phage prey and triggers the genome ejection.

Characterization of modular bacteriophage endolysins from giant phiKZ related myoviridae phages OBP, 201phi2-1 and PVP-SEl

open access: yes, 2012
Peptidoglycan lytic enzymes (endolysins) of bacteriophages have a major role in bacterial lysis at the end of the phage replication cycle. These endolysins turned out to be potential antibacterial compounds to combat a broad range of Gram-positive ...

A proposed integrated approach for the preclinical evaluation of phage therapy in Pseudomonas infections

open access: yes, 2016
Bacteriophage therapy is currently resurging as a potential complement/alternative to antibiotic treatment. However, preclinical evaluation lacks streamlined approaches.

Genome Instability of Pseudomonas aeruginosa phages of the EL species: examination of virulent mutants

open access: yes, 2011
The article continues a study of pseudolysogeny in Pseudominas aeruginosa infected with phiKZ-like phages of the EL species. Analysis was performed for several newly isolated vir mutants of EL phages (EL and RU) that were virulent (capable of causing ...

The contractile tail of bacteriophage T4: A molecular machine for infecting bacteria

open access: yes, 2009
Bacteriophage T4 tail is a complex molecular machine that facilitates high infection efficiency of the virus. It consists of an inner rigid tail tube, an outer contractile tail sheath and a baseplate with fibers.
