The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The human gut virome: inter-individual variation and dynamic response to diet. (2011, background): “Also seen were the expected diversity of lysins (Seo et al. 2010), holins (Wang et al. 2000), bacteriocins (Dawid et al. 2007), restriction/modification systems (Kobayashi 2001), and virulence factors (O'Brien et al. 1984; Lainhart et al. 2009; Campos et al. 2010).”
Sizing the Holin Lesion with an Endolysin-β-Galactosidase Fusion (2003, background): “Double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) phages use a holin-endolysin strategy to achieve a scheduled, efficient host lysis (27, 31).”
Assembly and Development of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Matrix (2009, background): “CidA, but LrgA has an extended N-terminus including two positively charged residues (arginine), which are important for anti-holin function [42].”
Cloning Serratia entomophila Antifeeding Genes—a Putative Defective Prophage Active against the Grass Grub Costelytra zealandica (2004, background): “Holins usually encode a dual start motif, enabling the transcription of a truncated analogue called an anti-holin–holin inhibitor, which allows fine tuning of the lytic schedule (48, 52).”
