Jumbo phage-mediated transduction of genomic islands. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S AAbstract Bacteria acquire new genes by horizontal gene transfer (HGT), typically mediated by mobile genetic elements (MGEs). While plasmids, bacteriophages and certain integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are well characterized, the broader diversity of MGEs remains poorly understood.

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

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.

A Novel Jumbo Phage PhiMa05 Inhibits Harmful Microcystis sp. [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Microcystis poses a concern because of its potential contribution to eutrophication and production of microcystins (MCs). Phage treatment has been proposed as a novel biocontrol method for Microcystis. Here, we isolated a lytic cyanophage named PhiMa05 with high efficiency against MCs-producing Microcystis strains.

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 ...

A phage nucleus-associated RNA-binding protein is required for jumbo phage infection
, 2023 Large-genome bacteriophages (jumbo phages) of the Chimalliviridae family assemble a nucleus-like compartment bounded by a protein shell that protects the replicating phage genome from host-encoded restriction enzymes and CRISPR/Cas nucleases.
