DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Bacteriophage - Online Event (17th-19th of January, 2017)" webinar to their offering. This annual event will discuss ...
Some viruses only infect bacteria; they care called bacteriophages or phages for short. As antibiotic-resistant bacteria become a greater threat to public health, scientists and clinicians have been ...
An electron micrograph— a photograph taken by means of a transmission electron microscope—of the DT57C bacteriophage. These types of images have been used to obtain a three-dimensional structure of ...
Bacteriophages are the most numerous organisms in the biosphere. In spite of their biological significance and the spectrum of potential applications, little high-resolution structural detail is ...
In many bacterial viruses and in certain animal viruses, the doublestranded DNA genome enters and exits the capsid through a portal gatekeeper. We report a pseudoatomic structure of a complete portal ...
The structure of the membrane-containing bacteriophage PRD1 has been determined by X-ray crystallography at about 4 Å resolution. Here we describe the structure and location of proteins P3, P16, P30 ...
Lytic v. Lysogenic Cycles of Bacteriophages. Credit: Michael Buoni via YouTube. Bacteriophage (phage) are obligate intracellular viruses that specifically infect bacteria. They were discovered ...
Cryo-electron microscopy by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to ...
GpW is a 68-residue protein from bacteriophage λ that participates in virus head morphogenesis. Previous NMR studies revealed a novel α+β fold for this protein. Recent experiments have shown that gpW ...
