(2006-07-11)Phage, although but a fraction of the size of bacteria, can, by lysogenic conversion, transform a harmless bacterium into a ruthless pathogen (3). This paper will discuss two new lysogenic dsDNA tailed phages of Burkholderia. ...
-
(2011-10-21)Bacteriophage holins are a diverse group of proteins that are responsible for the spontaneous and specifically-timed triggering of host cell lysis. The best-studied holin, S105 of phage lambda, is known to form lesions, ...
-
(2007-09-17)Phage lysis of cyanobacteria could significantly influence nutrient availability in aquatic systems. We examined the requirements of phage infection in freshwater cyanobacteria and identified several factors that affected ...
-
(2010-07-14)Most bacteriophages release progeny virions at the end of the infection cycle by lysis of the host. Large phages with double-stranded DNA genomes use a multigene strategy based on holins, small membrane proteins, and ...
-
(2016-08-01)Most of the large, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) bacteriophages infecting Gram-negative hosts utilize multi-protein strategy to lyse the three layers of the host cell envelop: the inner membrane (IM), the peptidoglycan (PG), ...

(2012-02-14)SAR endolysins are a recently discovered class of muralytic enzymes that are regulated by dynamic membrane topology. They are synthesized as enzymatically inactive integral membrane proteins during the phage infection cycle ...
