Researchers use CRISPR to engineer a bacteriophage to deliver DNA into targeted members of microbial communities for precise genome editing Bacteriophages (or phages) are viruses that infect bacteria.

Researchers have used laser-powered ‘optical tweezers’ to reveal a universal motor mechanism used by viruses for packaging their DNA into infectious particles. The research, published as a Reviewed ...

Some viruses only infect bacteria; they care called bacteriophages or phages for short. As antibiotic-resistant bacteria become a greater threat to public health, scientists and clinicians have been ...

Bacteriophages, or phages for short, are viruses that infect bacteria. Using phages therapeutically could be very useful in ...

AI designed new bacteriophages that killed E. coli in lab tests, promising advances but raising safety concerns.

University of Maryland, Baltimore County provides funding as a member of The Conversation US. After more than two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, you might picture a virus as a nasty spiked ball – a ...

“We were picking bits of the human genome absolutely at random from what was then the first library of the human genome, the Maniatis lambda phage library,” Page says. “I was literally picking—with a ...
