CRISPR–Cas is a widespread adaptive immune system in bacteria and archaea that
protects against viral infection by targeting specific invading nucleic acid sequences …

Species in the genus Pseudomonas thrive in a diverse set of ecological niches and include
crucial pathogens, such as the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the plant …

The ecological dynamics underlying the coexistence between antagonistic populations of
bacteria and their viruses, bacteriophages (phages), in the mammalian gut microbiota …

Ocean viruses are abundant and infect 20–40% of surface microbes. Infected cells, termed
virocells, are thus a predominant microbial state. Yet, virocells and their ecosystem impacts …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common, Gram-negative environmental organism. It can be a
significant pathogenic factor of severe infections in humans, especially in cystic fibrosis …

Bacteriophages (phages) are critical players in the dynamics and function of microbial
communities and drive processes as diverse as global biogeochemical cycles and human …

The archaeal tailed viruses (arTV), evolutionarily related to tailed double-stranded DNA
(dsDNA) bacteriophages of the class Caudoviricetes, represent the most common isolates …

Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is a complex polymicrobial infection of vagina that shifts the
paradigms of vaginal flora from lactobacilli to opportunistic pathogens. BV is catagorized by …

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized in seropositive
individuals by the presence of anti-cyclic citrullinated protein (CCP) antibodies. RA is linked …

Since their discovery, bacteriophages have been traditionally regarded as the natural
enemies of bacteria. However, recent advances in molecular biology techniques, especially …
