The viruses bind to matching bacteria to form unique sandwich structures that are then labeled for easy visual identification ... A) Schematic of the bacteriophage-functionalized magnetic Janus ...

Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery where one virus attached itself to another, as observed in bacteriophage viruses. This unique event involved a satellite virus attaching itself to a ...

Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. Bacteriophage P4 is a temperate virus, meaning it can integrate into the chromosome of its host cell and lie dormant. When P2 infects a cell ...

Researchers in the US have made a shocking discovery as they saw viruses latching onto each other. Two 'Bacteriophage' viruses have used each other to help replicate. "No one has ever seen a ...

Now, scientists think that a type of virus with an appetite solely for bacteria — known as a bacteriophage — could overcome these obstacles. One type of bacteriophage, called T4, is one of ...

This includes finding out how a bacteriophage, which is a type of virus that infects bacteria, kills a specific disease-causing bacterium. At the moment it is not known how this happens ...

The virus is the deepest known isolated bacteriophage—viruses that infect and replicate inside bacteria—ever found, according to a study published September 20 in the journal Microbiology ...
