The Noncontractile Phage Tail-like Bacterial Killing Nanomachines – Characterizing the Specificity Determinants of the F-Pyocins of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
… phage tail-like entities called F-pyocins. F-pyocins are high molecular weight bacteriocins resembling non-contractile bacteriophage tails such as E coli phage lambda of the Siphoviridae family. They are produced by many Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains and possess bactericidal …

The influence of non-inhibitory concentrations of purified pyocin S2 on Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates
… beneficial and antagonistic interactions. S-type pyocins are bacteriocin proteins produced by P. aeruginosa that can inhibit closely related strains. Previously, we observed a P. aeruginosa isolate using S-type pyocins to decrease the virulence of other isolates in a Drosophila melanogaster model. …

Controlling Pseudomonas aeruginosa Persister Cells by Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor
<p>Bacteria are well known to cause chronic infections in humans by entering dormancy and by developing biofilms. These mechanisms allow bacteria to exhibit antibiotic tolerance and relapse to an active virulent state when the antibiotic treatments are discontinued. During bacterial invasions, the …
