You've probably seen monarch butterflies, and maybe monarch caterpillars, but there's a lot to learn about the monarch life ...

Phage - the friendly virus Phage science may sound new and exciting, but it is actually a century old idea stemming from the discoveries of Felix d'Hérelle and Frederick Twort in the 1910s.

When overexpressed, csrA interferes with the phage life cycle by enhancing the expression of the cI repressor gene.

Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that kill certain bacteria. If antibiotics don’t work on your infection, phage therapy may be able to do the job instead.

What’s driving this resistance? Antibiotic overuse, or reliance on a single type of therapy? Resistance is an inevitable side effect of evolution: the organisms we want to outcompete will always ...

Methods to characterize such genes, even those critical to the phage life cycle, are labor intensive and are generally phage specific.

Phage therapy cured prostate infection survivor Greg Breed. Can it help millions of other patients as antibiotic resistance grows?

That genome belonged to φX174. The phage itself was acquired from Sinsheimer. By the late 1970s, much of the life cycle of φX174 was well understood, but uncertainties remained.

Researchers analyze prophages of the LF82 strain of adherent-invasive Escherichia coli to better understand their behavior in vitro and within macrophages.

Coliphage T3, Pseudomonas phage gh-1, and Salmonella phage SP6 were predicted to have genomic architectures and life cycles comparable to those of T7.
