The spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) poses a substantial threat to human health. Phage-mediated transduction could exacerbate ARG transmission. While several case studies exist, it is yet ...
Coral is a complicated holobiont, harboring an array of life forms at different scales, including coral cells, zooxanthellae, and associated bacteria, archaea and viruses. A research group led by Prof ...
Although it has become an often-cited statement that bacteriophages are the most abundant entities on the planet [1], many do not exist as the free-floating virions we generally envision but instead ...
In a recent study published in the journal PLoS Pathogens, researchers analyze prophages of the LF82 strain of adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) to better understand their behavior in vitro ...
A phage is a virus that invades a bacterial cell. While harmless to human cells, phages are potentially deadly to bacteria since many phages enter a cell in order to hijack its machinery in order to ...

Intron Biotechnology Inc. has announced the identification of lysogenic bacteriophages prophage and jamphage in the pancreatic cancer-related microbiome. This identification was achieved as part of ...
Researchers have uncovered a two-component system of Butters prophage genes that encode proteins that 'collaborate' to block entry and subsequent infection of some phages, but not others. Their ...
