Comparative Metagenomic Analysis of Bacteriophages and Prophages in Gnotobiotic Mouse Models
Gnotobiotic murine models are important to understand microbiota–host interactions. Despite the role of bacteriophages as drivers for microbiome structure and function, there is no information about the structure and function of the gut virome in ...

Prophage-DB: A comprehensive database to explore diversity, distribution, and ecology of prophages
AbstractBackgroundViruses that infect prokaryotes (phages) constitute the most abundant group of biological agents, playing pivotal roles in microbial systems. They are known to impact microbial community dynamics, microbial ecology, and evolution. Efforts to document the diversity, host range, infection dynamics, and effects of bacteriophage infection

PhagePro: prophage finding tool
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria and use them to reproduce. Their reproductive cycle can be lytic or lysogenic. The lytic cycle leads to the bacteria death, given that the bacteriophage hijacks hosts machinery to produce phage parts necessary to assemble a new complete bacteriophage, until cell wall lyse occurs.
