Bacteriophages are the most abundant entities on Earth ... The number of particles encapsulated into droplets follow the Poisson distribution, meaning that the λ phg is the mean number of phage ...

The wrapping of single bacteriophage-infected bacteria with a polymeric nanoscale coating preserves the vitality of the replicating phages, which led to enhanced therapeutic outcomes in mice with ...

Bacteriophages are the most common entities on earth and represent a constant challenge to bacterial populations. To fend off bacteriophage infection, bacteria evolved immune systems to avert phage ...

This manuscript describes an important finding of the transcriptional control of a chimeric gene transfer agents (GTA) cluster in Bartonella by a processive anti-termination factor (BrrG). The ...

Conducted by Padma Shri awardee Dr Ajay Sonkar, the study found that the river contains 1,100 types of bacteriophages—microscopic viruses that selectively target and destroy bacteria ...

Water scarcity, contamination, and lack of sanitation are global issues that require innovations in chemistry, engineering, and materials science. To tackle the challenge of providing high-quality ...

Whilst the ultimate outcome of the lytic cycle is production of new phage progeny and death of the host bacterial cell, this is a multistep process involving precise coordination of gene transcription ...
