Studies on Streptomyces phage II. Host range and species differentiation.
The phage 514-3 of Streptomyces griseus described in the preceding paper (Gilmour et al., 1959) has from the time of its isolation from soil, showed a high infectivity for a large number of diverse Streptomyces species. The application of pure-lining procedures involving transfers from plaques and continued propagation on the homologous host S. griseus strain 3475 has not altered the observed b...
متن کاملComplete genome sequence of wide-host-range Staphylococcus aureus phage JD007.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-related infections have become a serious problem worldwide. Bacteriophage therapy is an alternative approach against this threat. S. aureus phage JD007, which belongs to the Myoviridae family according to transmission electron microscopic imaging, could lyse nearly 30% of the S. aureus strains from Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai, China, and was isolated fr...
متن کاملIsolation of lactococcal prolate phage-phage recombinants by an enrichment strategy reveals two novel host range determinants.
Virulent lactococcal prolate (or c2-like) phages are the second most common phage group that causes fermentation failure in the dairy industry. We have mapped two host range determinants in two lactococcal prolate phages, c2 and 923, for the host strains MG1363 and 112. Each phage replicates on only one of the two host strains: c2 on MG1363 and 923 on 112. Phage-phage recombinants that replicat...
متن کاملSecreted effectors in Toxoplasma gondii and related species: determinants of host range and pathogenesis?
Recent years have witnessed the discovery of a number of secreted proteins in Toxoplasma gondii that play important roles in host-pathogen interactions and parasite virulence, particularly in the mouse model. However, the role that these proteins play in driving the unique features of T. gondii compared to some of its nearest apicomplexan relatives (Hammondia hammondi and Neospora caninum) is u...
متن کاملDiversity and host range of Shiga toxin-encoding phage.
Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2) from the foodborne pathogen Escherichia coli O157:H7 is encoded on a temperate bacteriophage. Toxin-encoding phages from C600::933W and from six clinical E. coli O157:H7 isolates were characterized for PCR polymorphisms, phage morphology, toxin production, and lytic and lysogenic infection profiles on O157 and non-O157 serotype E. coli. The phages were found to be highly va...
