Title: Nanobionic Bacteriophage Post by: Xenodimensional on May 31, 2014, 04:04:45 PM Nanobionic Bacteriophage (http://nocache-nocookies.digitalgott.com/gallery/16/3443_31_05_14_4_04_44.jpeg) http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=16202 A bacteriophage is a virus that infects and replicates within the bacteria. The term is derived from 'bacteria' and the Greek φαγεῖν phagein "to devour". Bacteriophages are composed of proteins that encapsulate a DNA or RNA genome, and may have relatively simple or elaborate structures. Their genomes may encode as few as four genes, and as many as hundreds of genes. |
