Bacteriophage P22, artwork C016 / 9333
Bacteriophage P22. Computer artwork of an enterobacteria phage P22 particle. A bacteriophage, or phage, is a virus that infects bacteria. Enterobacteria P22 infects Salmonella typhimurium bacteria. The phage consists of an icosahedral (20-sided) head (upper centre), which contains the genetic material, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, red), a short tail and tail fibres (leg-like), which fix it to a specific receptor site

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Bacteriophage P22" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the microscopic world of viruses. Created by Russell Kightley, this computer-generated illustration showcases an enterobacteria phage P22 particle in all its intricate glory. At the heart of this image lies the icosahedral head, resembling a majestic geometric structure with twenty sides. Within this head resides the genetic material that defines life itself – DNA, depicted here in vibrant red hues. The short tail and leg-like tail fibers extend from the head, serving as vital connectors to a specific receptor site on Salmonella typhimurium bacteria. Bacteriophages like P22 are remarkable organisms that infect bacteria, acting as both predator and parasite within their microscopic realm. This artwork not only captures their structural beauty but also highlights their crucial role in microbiology and virology research. The fusion of artistry and scientific accuracy showcased in this print invites viewers to marvel at the complexity of nature's smallest wonders. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly invisible realms lie extraordinary structures waiting to be discovered and understood. Russell Kightley's masterful creation offers an awe-inspiring glimpse into the hidden world of bacteriophages—a testament to our ongoing quest for knowledge about these enigmatic entities that shape our understanding of biology and genetics.
