Bacteriophage–host interaction: from splendid isolation into a messy reality
Abstract
In the reductionist era T-type coliphage research became one of the foundations for molecular biology. The technological progress in systems biology makes it now possible to study T-type phage-Escherichia coli interaction in the natural ecological niche, the gut of warm blooded animals. This development gives a second chance to phages as anti-microbial agents ('phage therapy'). Bacteria growing in biofilms are difficult to treat with antibiotics while many phages express naturally depolymerases which attack the polysaccharide matrix that enmesh bacteria in biofilms. Phages were already used successfully to reduce contamination levels with medical catheters and might likewise be of use against infections frequently forming bacterial biofilms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
