| genomic and proteomic characterization of a thermophilic geobacillus bacteriophage gbsv1. | phages are present wherever life is found, and play roles in many biogeochemical and ecological processes. the thermophilic bacteriophages, however, have not been well studied. in this study, phage gbsv1 was obtained from a thermophilic bacterium geobacillus sp. 6k51 isolated from a hot spring. gbsv1 contains a double-stranded linear dna of 34,683bp, which encodes 54 putative open reading frames (orfs). thirty three of these 54 orfs exhibit sequence similarities to genes from 7 species of geobac ... | 2009 | 19174188 |
