The lytic cycle, or virulent infection, involves a virus taking control of a host cell and using it to produce its viral progeny, killing the host in the process. The lysogenic cycle, or non-virulent ...

Entry into the lytic or the lysogenic cycle is controlled by the lysis-lysogeny transcriptional switch. This switch activates the prophage, resulting in viral replication, host cell lysis, and the ...

Lytic cycle; Monophage therapy is effective against vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium septicemia; Pyophage cocktail, containing three lytic phages, is effective against burn-causing bacterial ...

A novel curcumin derivative, C210, activates the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) lytic cycle without producing infectious virions by disrupting HSP90. This discovery opens avenues for safer EBV ...

When a phage infects a bacterial cell, it normally reproduces in one of two ways: 1) the lytic cycle, in which the phage reproduces and lyses the cell, resulting in the release of new phage ...

In the lytic cycle, this is translated to produce phage proteins that hijack the host replication, transcription and translation machineries for phage component production and genome replication. The ...

The lytic and lysogenic cycles are the two main phases of a virus’ infective lifecycle and route to replication. The lytic cycle, or virulent infection, involves a virus taking control of a host cell ...
