Bacteriophages are the most numerous organisms in the biosphere. In spite of their biological significance and the spectrum of potential applications, little high-resolution structural detail is ...
The study may provide clues to how similar viruses infect cells and suggest ways for developing a new class of antibiotics and other drugs to prevent illnesses caused by viral pathogens. Scientists at ...
The three-dimensional structure of thioredoxin from bacteriophage T4 has been determined from a 2.8- angstrom resolution electron density map. Phase angles for this map were determined from one heavy ...
In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers present a method for constructing artificial viral vectors (AVVs) using the established structural components of ...
The Tail of Bacteriophage T4 is Shown Before (left) and After (right) Binding to a Host Cell (IMAGE)
The tail of bacteriophage T4 is shown before (left) and after (right) binding to a host cell. Upon attachment to the bacterium, the bacteriophage pierces the host cell envelope and injects its genomic ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A detailed look at a syringe-like structure designed to inject viral DNA into a host cell reveals a unique and complex entry scheme for viruses. The study may provide clues to ...
