Coliphage T2

Coliphage T2 is a bacteriophage, or virus that infects bacteria, specifically Escherichia coli, and serves as a model for studying virus-host interactions and environmental virus behavior. The phage attaches to receptors on an E. coli cell, injects its DNA, redirects host machinery to replicate viral genomes and produce structural proteins, assembles new particles, and ultimately lyses the cell to release progeny. In environmental sciences, Coliphage T2 helps researchers investigate bacteriophage persistence, transport, adsorption, and inactivation in water and wastewater systems. These studies inform microbial risk assessment, treatment evaluation, and understanding of virus fate in aquatic environments.
