Characterization and Genomic Analysis of PALS2, a Novel Staphylococcus Jumbo Bacteriophage

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Staphylococcus aureus is an important human pathogen that can be frequently encountered in clinical and food-processing surroundings. Among the various countermeasures, bacteriophages have been considered to be promising alternatives to antibiotics.

Integrative omics analysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa virus PA5oct highlights the molecular complexity of jumbo phages

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 22, Issue 6, Page 2165-2181, June 2020., 2020
Summary Pseudomonas virus vB_PaeM_PA5oct is proposed as a model jumbo bacteriophage to investigate phage‐bacteria interactions and is a candidate for phage therapy applications. Combining hybrid sequencing, RNA‐Seq and mass spectrometry allowed us to accurately annotate its 286,783 bp genome with 461 coding regions including four non‐coding RNAs ...

Cryo-EM Study of the Pseudomonas Bacteriophage φKZ [PDF]

Structure, 2007
The phiKZ virus is one of the largest known bacteriophages. It infects Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is frequently pathogenic in humans, and, therefore, has potential for phage therapy. The phiKZ virion consists of an approximately 1450 A diameter icosahedral head and an approximately 2000 A long contractile tail.

[Stucture of PhiKZ bacteriophage particles].

Voprosy virusologii, 1979
The structure of the particle of a new bacteriophage Pseudomonas phiKZ was studied. The particle of phiKZ bacteriophage was shown to have some features distinguishing this phage from all those known heretofore: a large size of the head and DNA and the presence in the head of a special structural formation named the central body.
