Molecular basis for anti-jumbo phage immunity by AVAST type 5.

Mol Cell
Jumbo phages protect their genomes from DNA-sensing bacterial defense systems by enclosing them within vesicles and nucleus-like compartments. Very little is known about defense systems specialized to counter these phages. Here, we show that AVAST type 5 (Avs5) systems, part of the signal transduction ATPases of numerous domains (STAND) superfamily ...

Genome Sequence of Jumbo Phage vB_AbaM_ME3 of Acinetobacter baumanni. [PDF]

Genome Announc, 2016
ABSTRACT Bacteriophage (phage) vB_AbaM_ME3 was previously isolated from wastewater effluent using the propagating host Acinetobacter baumannii DSM 30007. The full genome was sequenced, revealing it to be the largest Acinetobacter bacteriophage sequenced to date with a size of 234 ...

Global jumbo phage database (GJPD)

, 2023
Jumbo phages (genome length > 200 kbp) have been found in diverse habitats worldwide, infecting a variety of prokaryotes. Yet, our understanding of their evolution and adaptation strategy in soil is limited due to the scarcity of soil-derived genomes ...

Characterization and Genomic Analysis of a Novel Jumbo Bacteriophage vB_StaM_SA1 Infecting Staphylococcus aureus With Two Lysins

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The development of new antimicrobial agents is critically needed due to the alarming increase in antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens. Phages have been widely considered as effective alternatives to antibiotics.
