The CPT's Phage Naming Service is now available at phns.phagetech.org! This service lets you quickly check if a phage name already exists in either NCBI or PhagesDB.
Frankie Antillon (mentored by Ry Young, and working on single-gene lysis of ssRNA phages ) is the recipient of this year's Thomas L. Patterson Graduate Fellowship, a award funded by @chngin_the_wrld and Thomas Patterson since 2019 to support PhD phage research at the @TAMU_CPT
Our own @jrrmicro is presenting the intriguing story of phage N4 lysis inhibition molecular mechanism at the wonderfully organized @VoM_2024
Truly greatful for the awesome support by @postersmith to get our poster on time despite hurricane delays. Highly recommend their poster printing service! Several CPT members will attend @VoM_2024 next week and looking forward to it!
We are so grateful and honored to receive a generous gift from Love, Tito’s — the philanthropic heart of @TitosVodka — through @TXAMFoundation specifically to support our phage therapy research!! @AgriLife @TAMUBCBP agrilifetoday.tamu.edu/2024/06/26/lov…

Researchers uncover how phages disarm pathogenic bacteria- AgriLife Today
AgriLife scientists recently uncovered how certain viruses disable bacteria, offering avenues for combating drug-resistant infections.
Our undergrad student researcher Gabriella Ganser won the second place award at this year’s Texas A&M System Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (TAMUS LSAMP) Symposium held at Texas A&M University Corpus Christi! @tamuslsamp tamuslsamp.org/2024-tamus-lsa…
Very excited to announce that the work lead by @ZengLanying and Junjie Zhang is now online in Science!! The paper details the molecular mechanism of type IV pili detachment by ssRNA phage PP7, which may be common among other ssRNA phages science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Our newest paper on physiological characterization of single-gene lysis (sgl) proteins: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jb…. The Sgls are segregated to operational types based on physiological analysis, as a first step toward the expectations for new antibiotic development.

After maintaining our own Galaxy-Apollo instance for >10 years, we are transferring our primary workflows to the European Galaxy instance (accessible at phage.usegalaxy.eu), read more details at cpt.tamu.edu/the-cpt-galaxy…
Some of our phage protocols including phage DNA extraction, genome sequencing and assembly, and very importantly, genome closure from the assembled contig, are now available online! link.springer.com/protocol/10.10…
Just set up the CPT account on Blue Sky, if you are on it, follow us! bsky.app/profile/phaget…
Our newest paper on engineering Burkholderia phage is out! This auto-plaquing phage makes lots of true vir mutants and a new tail fiber fusion gives it expanded host range. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37943040/
If you'd like to see me, @profvrr & @andyscharenberg discuss the potential of viruses as medicine at the next #SXSW2024, vote for our #SXSW panel on #PanelPicker by August 20: panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/141456
Generously funded by @chngin_the_wrld and Thomas Patterson to the CPT, the 2023 Thomas Patterson Graduate Fellowship goes to Zihao Yu from @ZengLanying Lab. Zihao does single-cell studies of phage genome replication and infection mechanisms cpt.tamu.edu/thomas-l-patte…
Congratulations to Zihao Yu of the Zeng lab at Texas A&M University for winning the 2023 Gisela Mosig award sponsored by @NEBiolabs! @txresearch @TAMUBCBP
Congratulations to @microbial_maeve of @MSU_MMG for winning the 2023 @TAMU_CPT award for best overall phage abstract! Apologies for tweeting out the incorrect award title earlier.
