Ecology of prophage-like elements in Bacillus subtilis at global and local geographical scales

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Prophages constitute a substantial portion of bacterial genomes, yet their effects on hosts remain poorly understood. We examine the abundance, distribution, and activity of prophages in Bacillus subtilis using computational and laboratory ...

Characterization of Clinical and Carrier Streptococcus agalactiae and Prophage Contribution to the Strain Variability

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Streptococcus agalactiae (group B Streptococcus, GBS) represents a leading cause of invasive bacterial infections in newborns and is also responsible for diseases in older and immunocompromised adults. Prophages represent an important factor contributing

Diverse Prophage Elements of Salmonella enterica Serovars Show Potential Roles in Bacterial Pathogenicity

open access: yesCells
Nontyphoidal salmonellosis is an important foodborne and zoonotic infection that causes significant global public health concern. Diverse serovars are multidrug-resistant and encode several virulence indicators; however, little is known on the role ...

IMACulate(DE3), an E. coli Strain for High Purity His‐Tagged Protein Purifications

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immobilised Metal Affinity Chromatography (IMAC) is widely used to purify his‐tagged recombinant proteins from Escherichia coli. However, endogenous contaminants with histidine clusters, such as GFAT and PDH E1 proteins, are often co‐purified with the target protein.

Prevalence, diversity, and parasitism of tailed prophages in Vibrio harveyi

open access: yesmSphere
Vibrio harveyi, a pathogenic bacterium, contains prophages that significantly influence its pathogenesis and evolutionary traits. Investigating the prevalence, evolution, and ecological roles of these prophages is of great importance as V.

Plasmid-Mediated Stabilization of Prophages

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
The consequences of prophage induction on the physiology of microbial populations are varied and include enhanced biofilm formation, conferral of virulence, and increased opportunity for horizontal gene transfer. These traits lead to competitive advantages for lysogenized bacteria and influence bacterial lifestyles in a variety of niches.

Tiny carriers, big impact: How Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles drive oral diseases and beyond

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review explores how Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles drive local oral diseases and distal pathologies via sophisticated cross‐compartment cross talk. It highlights the transformative potential of these “tiny carriers” as next‐generation molecular intermediaries for advanced health monitoring and innovative bio‐interventions by ...

Sequence variability of Campylobacter temperate bacteriophages

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2008
Background Prophages integrated within the chromosomes of Campylobacter jejuni isolates have been demonstrated very recently. Prior work with Campylobacter temperate bacteriophages, as well as evidence from prophages in other enteric bacteria, suggests ...
