Bacterial viruses “overheard” signals from other species about hibernation. It hurt themselves

Bacterial viruses “overheard” signals from other species about hibernation. It hurt themselves

Bacterial viruses have proven capable of reading chemical signals from other species indicating how many bacteria are still available for capture, and using this information to decide whether to enter dormancy or actively replicate. However, this "eavesdropping" is only useful for the viruses that produce these chemical signals themselves, not for those that read them. Since bacterial viruses are being explored as a means of combating antibiotic-resistant infections, the ability to influence the behavior of these viruses will improve the effectiveness of such measures.

How modern phage therapy works: genetically improved phages and new ways to monitor their action

Today, phage therapy is no longer just an alternative to antibiotics, but a new approach to fighting infections. It combines biology, genetics, and modern technology, opening the door to treatments that until recently seemed impossible. If this field continues to develop, humanity may have a powerful answer to the challenge posed by the era of antibiotic resistance.

Invisible to bacteria: scientists have discovered a new trick of bacteriophages

Invisible to bacteria: scientists have discovered a new trick of bacteriophages

Scientists describe a new mechanism that demonstrates the complexity of the "battle" between viruses and bacteria. The bacteriophage in question is HY126, which has a specialized enzyme system in its genome that modifies viral DNA. This mechanism involves two sequential chemical modifications of cytosine, one of the DNA bases: hydroxylation and the subsequent addition of arabinose molecules. This discovery expands our understanding of phage biology and reveals new ways in which viruses evade bacterial defenses.

Care through science: Sabour Awards for students researching bacteriophages and food safety

Sometimes a person’s legacy is not just their scientific achievements, but also the light they light in others. Professor Parviz Sabour was just such a person: an outstanding microbiologist, educator, and science communicator who dedicated his life to the study of bacteriophages and food safety. After his death, his family fulfilled his dream by establishing the Sabour Graduate Awards to support young scientists working in these important areas.

Mutant organisms from space could solve the global antibiotic crisis

Scientists have studied how bacteriophages behave in microgravity conditions on the International Space Station. Although infection progresses significantly more slowly there, the process itself doesn't stop—phages still find a way to infect bacteria and reproduce.

Antibiotics in animal husbandry: is there an alternative?

The use of antibiotics has become the norm in modern animal husbandry, as these drugs not only help prevent bacterial infections in animals but also contribute to their weight gain. The result is the spread of antibiotic resistance.
