Bacterial infections and its treatment has been a concern for researchers and scientists for centuries. At first, the invention and treatment with antibiotics seemed like a promising and reliable solution to the problem. ...
Genomic analysis of the correlation between CRISPR self-targeting spacers and prophage-related pathogenicity in Vibrio cholerae and Staphylococcus aureus

Roy, Protik (Brac University, 2024-10)

The interactions between bacteria and phages are intricate and dynamic, manifesting through two main life cycles: the lytic cycle, in which phages destroy their hosts via cell lysis, and the lysogenic cycle, where phage ...
