| A bacteriophage, also known informally as a phage, is a virus that infects and replicates within bacteria and archaea. The term was derived from `bacteria` and the Greek Ãâ ñóÃ栨âý phagein, meaning `to devour`. Bacteriophages are composed of proteins that encapsulate a DNA or RNA genome, and may have structures that are either simple or elaborate. |
