  2. Type VI secretion system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_VI_secretion_system

    The tubules consist of repeating units of the proteins TssA and TssB (VipA/VipB) arranged as a sheath around a tube built from stacked hexameric rings of the haemolysin co-regulated protein (Hcp). [ 12 ] [ 13 ] At the tip of the Hcp tube sits a trimer of the phage tail spike-like protein VgrG, which is in turn capped by a pointed PAAR domain ...

  3. Caudoviricetes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caudoviricetes

    The virus particles have a distinct shape; each virion has an icosahedral head that contains the viral genome, and is attached to a flexible tail by a connector protein. [2] The order encompasses a wide range of viruses, many containing genes of similar nucleotide sequence and function.

  4. Bacteriophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteriophage

    Structural model at atomic resolution of bacteriophage T4 [1] The structure of a typical myovirus bacteriophage Anatomy and infection cycle of bacteriophage T4. A bacteriophage (/ b æ k ˈ t ɪər i oʊ f eɪ dʒ /), also known informally as a phage (/ ˈ f eɪ dʒ /), is a virus that infects and replicates within bacteria and archaea.

  5. Filamentous bacteriophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filamentous_bacteriophage

    Assembled major coat protein subunits in Ff (fd, f1, M13) filamentous bacteriophage (genus Inovirus), exploded view. Filamentous phage virion--schematic views. Filamentous bacteriophages are among the simplest living organisms known, with far fewer genes than the classical tailed bacteriophages studied by the phage group in the mid-20th century.

  6. Lambda phage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_phage

    Bacteriophage Lambda Structure at Atomic Resolution [1] Enterobacteria phage λ (lambda phage, coliphage λ, officially Escherichia virus Lambda) is a bacterial virus, or bacteriophage, that infects the bacterial species Escherichia coli (E. coli). It was discovered by Esther Lederberg in 1950. [2]

  7. Escherichia virus T4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escherichia_virus_T4

    The species was formerly named T-even bacteriophage, a name which also encompasses, among other strains (or isolates), Enterobacteria phage T2, Enterobacteria phage T4 and Enterobacteria phage T6. Use in research

  8. Bacterial cellular morphologies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_cellular...

    A coccus (plural cocci, from the Latin coccinus (scarlet) and derived from the Greek kokkos (berry)), is any microorganism (usually bacteria) [1] whose overall shape is spherical or nearly spherical. [2] [3] [4] Coccus refers to the shape of the bacteria and can contain multiple genera, such as staphylococci or streptococci. Cocci can grow in ...

  9. Phage display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phage_display

    Like the two-hybrid system, phage display is used for the high-throughput screening of protein interactions.In the case of M13 filamentous phage display, the DNA encoding the protein or peptide of interest is ligated into the pIII or pVIII gene, encoding either the minor or major coat protein, respectively.
