The Biology of Nucleus-Forming Jumbo Phages.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Genetics
Nucleus-forming jumbo bacteriophages display a surprisingly intricate replication cycle inside of bacterial host cells, challenging the long-standing paradigm of prokaryotic simplicity.

Subcellular organization of viral particles during maturation of nucleus-forming jumbo phage

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
Many eukaryotic viruses assemble mature particles within distinct subcellular compartments, but bacteriophages are generally assumed to assemble randomly throughout the host cell cytoplasm. Here, we show that viral particles of Pseudomonas nucleus-forming jumbo phage PhiPA3 assemble into a ...

Immediate targeting of host ribosomes by jumbo phage encoded proteins

2023
AbstractBacteriophages must seize control of the host gene expression machinery to promote their own protein synthesis. Since the bacterial hosts are armed with numerous anti-phage defence systems, it is essential that mechanisms of host take-over act immediately upon infection.

Jumbo phages

Here we collected 59,652,008 putative viral genomes spanning seven different habitats by using 38 public metagenome datasets, an integrated public viral genome database (IGNR), and a pig gut viral genome database (PGV). A total of 10,754 megaphage genomes were obtained with genome sizes from 200 to 831 kb.

A novel jumbo Tenacibaculum maritimum lytic phage with head-fiber-like appendages

Archives of Virology, 2019
A novel jumbo bacteriophage (myovirus) is described. The lytic phage of Tenacibaculum maritimum, which is the etiological agent of tenacibaculosis in a variety of farmed marine fish worldwide, was plaque-isolated from seawater around a fish aquaculture field in Japan. The phage had an isometric head 110-120 nm in diameter, from which several 50- to 100-
