Phage typing of Salmonella enteritidis in the United States [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
The number of reported isolates of Salmonella enteritidis has increased dramatically in the last 10 years. For many years phage typing has been a useful epidemiologic tool for studying outbreaks of S. typhi and S. typhimurium. In 1987, Ward et al. (L. R. Ward, J. De Sa, and B. Rowe, Epidemiol. Infect.

Network Models of Phage-Bacteria Coevolution [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 74, 066105 (2006), 2006
Bacteria and their bacteriophages are the most abundant, widespread and diverse groups of biological entities on the planet. In an attempt to understand how the interactions between bacteria, virulent phages and temperate phages might affect the diversity of these groups, we developed a novel stochastic network model for examining the co-evolution of ...

Structural and Biochemical Characterization of a Widespread Enterobacterial Peroxidase Encapsulin

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are self‐assembling bacterial protein compartments loaded with cargo enzymes. The most abundant encapsulin cargo class are Dye‐decolorizing Peroxidases (DyPs). In this study, we structurally and biochemically characterize a DyP encapsulin found in many enterobacteria.

Diversity of Salmonella enterica phages isolated from chicken farms in Kenya

Microbiology Spectrum
In this study, we describe the characterization of 67 Salmonella enterica phages isolated from Kenya. Specifically, the phages were isolated from chicken feces as well as from swabs and water samples obtained from chicken farms and slaughterhouses in ...

Role of osmotic and hydrostatic pressures in bacteriophage genome ejection [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 87, 022114 (2013), 2012
A critical step in the bacteriophage life cycle is genome ejection into host bacteria. The ejection process for double-stranded DNA phages has been studied thoroughly \textit{in vitro}, where after triggering with the cellular receptor the genome ejects into a buffer.

A Dual‐Targeting T6SS DNase Drives Bacterial Antagonism and Eukaryotic Apoptosis via the cGAS‐STING‐TNF Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The bacterial Type VI secretion system (T6SS) emerges as a sophisticated virulence mechanism, leveraging the dual‐function effector TkeA from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. TkeA concurrently damages rival bacteria and host cell DNA, triggering the host's cGAS‐STING‐TNF pathway and inducing apoptosis.

Evaluation of Microencapsulation of The UFV-AREG1 Bacteriophage in Alginate-Ca Microcapsules using Microfluidic Devices

, 2017
The indiscriminate use of antibiotics and the emergence of resistant microorganisms have become a major challenge for the food industry. The purpose of this work was to microencapsulate the bacteriophage UFV-AREG1 in a calcium alginate matrix using ...
