The use of genomic signature distance between bacteriophages and their hosts displays evolutionary relationships and phage growth cycle determination

Virology Journal, 2010
Background Bacteriophage classification is mainly based on morphological traits and genome characteristics combined with host information and in some cases on phage growth lifestyle.

Genome Sequence of the Pseudomonas protegens Phage ΦGP100

, 2018
We report here the complete annotated genome sequence of ΦGP100, a lytic bacteriophage of the Podoviridae family. ΦGP100 was isolated from rhizosphere soil in Switzerland and infects specifically strains of Pseudomonas

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

Mosaic Graphs and Comparative Genomics in Phage Communities [PDF]

Journal of Computational Biology, 2010
Comparing the genomes of two closely related viruses often produces mosaics where nearly identical sequences alternate with sequences that are unique to each genome. When several closely related genomes are compared, the unique sequences are likely to be shared with third genomes, leading to virus mosaic communities.

Whole-genome sequence of phage-resistant strain Escherichia coli DH5α

, 2018
The genomes of many strains of Escherichia coli have been sequenced, as this organism is a classic model bacterium. Here, we report the genome sequence of Escherichia coli DH5α, which is resistant to a T4 bacteriophage (CCTCC AB 2015375), while its other

Discovery of cyanophage genomes which contain mitochondrial DNA polymerase [PDF]

, 2011
DNA polymerase γ is a family A DNA polymerase responsible for the replication of mitochondrial DNA in eukaryotes. The origins of DNA polymerase γ have remained elusive because it is not present in any known bacterium, though it has been hypothesized that

Salmonella enterica serovar typhi limits the potency of typhoid toxin and ADP‐ribosylating toxin AB to establish a persistent infection

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The two catalytic subunits of typhoid toxin dissociate from the holotoxin in the ER of an intoxicated cell, but only CdtB exits the ER to generate immunosuppressive effects. PltA is retained in the ER and sequestered from its cytosolic target, thus allowing the anti‐inflammatory effects of CdtB to promote intestinal colonization.

Spontaneous deletion of an "ORFanage" region facilitates host adaptation in a "photosynthetic" cyanophage [PDF]

, 2015
Viruses have been suggested to be the largest source of genetic diversity on Earth. Genome sequencing and metagenomic surveys reveal that novel genes with unknown functions are abundant in viral genomes.
