Whilst the ultimate outcome of the lytic cycle is production of new phage progeny and death ... eliminating susceptible hosts and promoting the propagation of resistance, by gene transfer for example, ...

Here, we uncover a critical physiological role for a widely misunderstood class of autolytic enzymes, lytic transglycosylases (LTGs). We demonstrate that LTG activity is essential to survival by ...

We present a mathematical model of the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of such viral communication and show that a communication strategy in which phages use the lytic cycle early in an outbreak ...
