| characterization of a vii-like phage specific to escherichia coli o157:h7. | phage vb_ecom_cba120 (cba120), isolated against escherichia coli o157:h7 from a cattle feedlot, is morphologically very similar to the classic phage vii of salmonella enterica serovar typhi. until recently, little was known genetically or physiologically about the vii-like phages, and none targeting e. coli have been described in the literature. the genome of cba120 has been fully sequenced and is highly similar to those of both vii and the shigella phage ag3. the core set of structural and repl ... | 2011 | 21899740 |
| the genome and structural proteome of yua, a new pseudomonas aeruginosa phage resembling m6. | pseudomonas aeruginosa phage yua (siphoviridae) was isolated from a pond near moscow, russia. it has an elongated head, encapsulating a circularly permuted genome of 58,663 bp, and a flexible, noncontractile tail, which is terminally and subterminally decorated with short fibers. the yua genome is neither mu- nor lambda-like and encodes 78 gene products that cluster in three major regions involved in (i) dna metabolism and replication, (ii) host interaction, and (iii) phage particle formation an ... | 2008 | 18065532 |
