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 ...

Multisubunit RNA Polymerases of Jumbo Bacteriophages
Viruses, 2020 Prokaryotic viruses with DNA genome longer than 200 kb are collectively referred to as “jumbo phages”. Some representatives of this phylogenetically diverse group encode two DNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RNAPs)—a virion RNAP and a non-virion RNAP.

Complete Genome Sequence of a Jumbo Bacteriophage, Escherichia Phage vB_EcoM_EC001
Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2022 Here, we report the genome sequence of a jumbo Escherichia phage vB_EcoM_EC001, a myovirus isolated from primary sludge using enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7. The genome is 240,200 bp long and has 270 predicted coding sequences, including a tryptophanyl tRNA gene.

Jumbo phages are active against extensively drug-resistant eyedrop-associated Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2023 ABSTRACT Antibiotic-resistant bacteria present an emerging challenge to human health. Their prevalence has been increasing across the globe due in part to the liberal use of antibiotics that has pressured them to develop resistance.

Characterization of Novel Erwinia amylovora Jumbo Bacteriophages from Eneladusvirus Genus
Viruses, 2020 Jumbo phages, which have a genome size of more than 200 kb, have recently been reported for the first time. However, limited information is available regarding their characteristics because few jumbo phages have been isolated.
