This work describes the complete genome sequence of the virulent myophage LL12. The 136-kb LL12 genome is related to coliphage V5 and is a component in the prebiotic PreforPro. LL12 was isolated ...against enterotoxigenic
, which causes traveler's diarrhea.
is an important human pathogen due to the wide range of infections it can cause and its emerging drug resistance. Isolation and characterization of phage infecting
could be important for future ...therapeutic applications. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the T4-like
myophage Mineola.
is an opportunistic pathogen that has become an increasing problem in nosocomial infections. Studying phages that infect
may lead to improvements in phage therapeutics for treating these infections. ...Here, the full genome sequence of Menlow, a Vi01-like phage, is introduced and described.
Enterotoxigenic
(ETEC) is an opportunistic pathogen that commonly causes foodborne illness. Study of bacteriophages against this pathogen could be useful to develop alternative treatment approaches. ...Here, we present the complete genome sequence of LL11, a T7-like podophage that infects ETEC.
infection is a serious concern in hospital settings due to the continuing emergence of multidrug-resistant strains. The study of
phages may help the development of new treatment strategies. Here, the ...complete genome sequence of
phage Patroon, a T3/T7-like phage, is presented.
Carbapenemase-producing
is an important opportunistic pathogen due to its drug resistance. This study reports on the isolation and characterization of a podophage, named Pylas, infecting this ...bacterium. The complete genome of phage Pylas is described, and it is distantly related to the well-studied phage N4.
Phage Sepoy infects
serovar Heidelberg, a Gram-negative bacterium that causes severe foodborne illnesses. Bacteriophages infecting this pathogen may be used as biocontrol agents for preventing
...foodborne diseases. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of Sepoy, a T5-like siphophage.
