The Artstor website will be retired on Aug 1st. Limnology and Oceanography Vol. 61, No. 3, 2016 Dilution reveals how viral lysis and gra... Grazing by protists and viral infection are the main known ...

Protein engineering company Lytica Therapeutics is pioneering the use of α-helical stapled antimicrobial peptides (StAMPs) to lyse and kill multidrug-resistant bacteria. Taking a lead from nature ...

As the antibiotic destroys the integrity of the bacterial membranes, we observed 'explosive cell lysis' (cells indicated by arrows), which leads in the release of DNA (diffuse green). Disclaimer ...

Phage receptors are often identified by mutations that make the bacteria resistant to phage lysis. The Phage Receptor Database (PhReD) provides a useful repository of known receptors on host cell ...

researchers identified a comparable communication system in temperate bacterial phages—viruses that enter either the lytic or lysogenic pathway when they infect a bacterium. Viruses in the lytic ...

Through a combination of high bacterial respiration and phage lysis, a continuous supply of terrestrial DOC was lost from the aquatic ecosystem in a CO₂-vented bacterial–viral loop. Bacterial ...

Blood agar is a rich, non-selective medium that supports the growth of most bacteria. However, it is differential based on the ability of the organism to produce enzymes called hemolysins, which lyse ...

When multiple phages attached themselves to a bacterial cell, fewer of them were able to even enter the cell, let alone cause ...
