Prophages block cell surface receptors to ensure survival of their viral progeny

V. L. Taylor, M. Shah, P. H. Patel, A. Yusuf, C. M. Burk, Z. Gitai, A. R. Davidson, M. D. Koch, K. L. Maxwell

The paper identifies a prophage protein that modulates pilus dynamics to prevent phage progeny destruction, enhancing survival through quorum sensing.

Inhibition of PQS signaling by the Pf bacteriophage protein PfsE enhances viral replication in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

C. M. Schwartzkopf, V. L. Taylor, M.-C. Groleau, D. R. Faith, A. K. Schmidt, T. L. Lamma, D. M. Brooks, E. Deziel, K. L. Maxwell, P. R. Secor

The paper identifies PfsE as a Pf phage protein that inhibits PQS quorum sensing and type IV pili extension, enhancing viral replication and protecting the host from competing phages.
