Viral infection collapses intracytoplasmic membrane integrity and autotrophic metabolism in ammonia-oxidizing Nitrosomonas europaea

János Papendorf, David Kamanda Ngugi, Petra Büsing…·Michael Pester

This study characterizes a phage that infects Nitrosomonas europaea, showing it disrupts membrane integrity and autotrophic metabolism, leading to host cell lysis.
