Researchers use CRISPR to engineer a bacteriophage to deliver DNA into targeted members of microbial communities for precise genome editing Bacteriophages (or phages) are viruses that infect bacteria.

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A transcription termination site occurs between the promoter for late gene expression of bacteriophage lambda and the late genes themselves.

Phages, or bacteriophages, are viruses that kill certain bacteria. They occur naturally all over the world – in the soil, water, and even in your body. They can fight off bacteria that aren’t able to ...

Lynn Cole was in a never-ending cycle of getting recurrent blood infections. And no antibiotic drugs managed to kill off her zombie-like bacteria. “It just got so frustrating over the years because we ...

Researchers have used laser-powered ‘optical tweezers’ to reveal a universal motor mechanism used by viruses for packaging their DNA into infectious particles. The research, published as a Reviewed ...

Last month, researchers published the first results from the ELIMINATE clinical trial. The trial aims to test the efficacy of viruses called bacteriophages to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs).
