Bacteriophages effects on antibiotic sensitivity of Staphylococcus aureus
مجلة مركز بحوث التقنيات الاحيائية, 2011 A total of 50 swab samples were collected from patients suffering from different infections. Morphological and biochemical characterization showed that 46% isolates were characterized as Staphylococcus aureus.

PhaBOX: A web server for identifying and characterizing phage contigs in metagenomic data [PDF]
published on Bioinformatics Advances 2023, 2023 Motivation: There is accumulating evidence showing the important roles of bacteriophages (phages) in regulating the structure and functions of the microbiome. However, lacking an easy-to-use and integrated phage analysis software hampers microbiome-related research from incorporating phages in the analysis.

On-demand isolation of bacteriophages against drug-resistant bacteria for personalized phage therapy
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Bacteriophages are bacterial viruses, capable of killing even multi-drug resistant bacterial cells. For this reason, therapeutic use of phages is considered as a possible alternative to conventional antibiotics.

PhaVIP: Phage VIrion Protein classification based on chaos game representation and Vision Transformer [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Motivation: As viruses that mainly infect bacteria, phages are key players across a wide range of ecosystems. Analyzing phage proteins is indispensable for understanding phages' functions and roles in microbiomes. High-throughput sequencing enables us to obtain phages in different microbiomes with low cost. However, compared to the fast accumulation of

Understanding Biofilm-Phage Interactions in Cystic Fibrosis Patients Using Mathematical Frameworks [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 When planktonic bacteria adhere together to a surface, they begin to form biofilms, or communities of bacteria. Biofilm formation in a host can be extremely problematic if left untreated, especially since antibiotics can be ineffective in treating the bacteria.

Phage ϕC2 mediates transduction of Tn6215, encoding erythromycin resistance, between Clostridium difficile strains [PDF]
, 2013 UNLABELLED: In this work, we show that Clostridium difficile phage ϕC2 transduces erm(B), which confers erythromycin resistance, from a donor to a recipient strain at a frequency of 10(-6) per PFU.

New Genus Fibralongavirus in Siphoviridae Phages of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius [PDF]
Viruses, 2019 Bacteriophages of the significant veterinary pathogen Staphylococcus pseudintermedius are rarely described morphologically and genomically in detail, and mostly include phages of the Siphoviridae family. There is currently no taxonomical classification for phages of this bacterial species.

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 ...
