چکیده

We report the first accurate genome sequence for bacteriophage P22, correcting a 0.14% error rate in previously determined sequences. DNA sequencing technology is now good enough that genomes of important model systems like P22 can be sequenced with essentially 100% accuracy with minimal investment of time and resources.

Sequence of the genome of Salmonella bacteriophage P22.

The sequence of the nonredundant region of the Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium temperate, serotype-converting bacteriophage P22 has been completed. The genome is 41,724 bp with an overall moles percent GC content of 47.1%. Numerous examples of potential integration host factor and C1-binding sites were identified in the sequence. In addition, five potential rho-independent terminators w...

Cloning, sequencing, and overexpression of gene 16 of Salmonella bacteriophage P22.

It has been suggested that gene product 16 of bacteriophage P22 forms a pore for DNA transfer and/or that it functions as a pilot protein guiding the DNA across the membrane. We have cloned gene 16 and determined the nucleotide sequence. Within the sequenced region there is an open reading frame that could encode a protein of 609 amino acids having a molecular weight of 64,366. The hydropathic ...

Complete Genome Sequence of Bacillus cereus Group Phage TsarBomba

The Bacillus cereus group bacteriophage TsarBomba, a double-stranded DNA Myoviridae, was isolated from soil collected in Saratov, Russia. TsarBomba was found to be similar to Bacillus phages BCP78 and BCU4, and to have a wide host range among Bacillus cereus group species.

Nucleotide sequence of the head assembly gene cluster of bacteriophage L and decoration protein characterization.

The temperate Salmonella enterica bacteriophage L is a close relative of the very well studied bacteriophage P22. In this study we show that the L procapsid assembly and DNA packaging genes, which encode terminase, portal, scaffold, and coat proteins, are extremely close relatives of the homologous P22 genes (96.3 to 99.1% identity in encoded amino acid sequence). However, we also identify an L...

The superinfection exclusion gene (sieA) of bacteriophage P22: identification and overexpression of the gene and localization of the gene product.

Previous work has shown that the sieA gene of Salmonella bacteriophage P22 is located between the genes mnt and 16. We cloned DNA fragments of the region into multicopy vectors and tested the transformants for mediating superinfection exclusion. Subcloning, phenotypical tests, and DNA sequencing resulted in the identification of the sieA gene. There are two possible initiation codons within one...
