Complete Genome Sequence of Escherichia Phage Lw1, a New Member of the RB43 Group of Pseudo T-Even Bacteriophages

RB43-related bacteriophages have a specific genome type that clearly distinguishes them from other T4-like viruses. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of a new virulent phage, Lw1, isolated as an Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) contaminant. Lw1 shares an RB43-like genome organization, but it d...

Descripción
Sumario:RB43-related bacteriophages have a specific genome type that clearly distinguishes them from other T4-like viruses. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of a new virulent phage, Lw1, isolated as an Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) contaminant. Lw1 shares an RB43-like genome organization, but it does not contain putative AP2-domain endonuclease genes.
