متن کاملPhage HK022 Roi protein inhibits phage lytic growth in Escherichia coli integration host factor mutants.
Temperate coliphage HK022 requires integration host factor (IHF) for lytic growth. The determinant responsible for this requirement was identified as a new gene (roi) located between genes P and Q. This gene encodes a DNA-binding protein (Roi) containing a helix-turn-helix motif. We have shown that Roi binds a site within its own gene that is closely linked to an IHF binding site. By gel retard...
متن کاملComparative Modeling of Lytic and Lysogenic Phage-host Systems
Bacteriophages are the most abundant organisms on the planet and play crucial roles in bacterial population dynamics, microbial food webs, and nutrient cycling. Understanding models of bacteriophage population dynamics is necessary to fully understand these ecological processes, but to do so we must mathematically distinguish between the different virus life cycles. Here, we build on two three-...
متن کاملCharacterization of the replication, transfer, and plasmid/lytic phage cycle of the Streptomyces plasmid-phage pZL12.
We report here the isolation and recombinational cloning of a large plasmid, pZL12, from endophytic Streptomyces sp. 9R-2. pZL12 comprises 90,435 bp, encoding 112 genes, 30 of which are organized in a large operon resembling bacteriophage genes. A replication locus (repA) and a conjugal transfer locus (traA-traC) were identified in pZL12. Surprisingly, the supernatant of a 9R-2 liquid culture c...
متن کاملInactivation of Burkholderia cepacia complex phage KS9 gp41 identifies the phage repressor and generates lytic virions.
The Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) is made up of at least 17 species of gram-negative opportunistic bacterial pathogens that cause fatal infections in patients with cystic fibrosis and chronic granulomatous disease. KS9 (vB_BcenS_KS9), one of a number of temperate phages isolated from BCC species, is a prophage of Burkholderia pyrrocinia LMG 21824. Transmission electron micrographs indicate...
