Complete genome of a novel virulent phage ST0 lysing Escherichia coli H8

Phage ST0 lysing Escherichia coli H8 was isolated from wastewater and sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq system. Genomic analyses revealed that it was virulent phages and contained a circular double-stranded DNA genome, consisting of 170,496 nucleotides with an average G + C content of 37.67%. This s...

Sumario:Phage ST0 lysing Escherichia coli H8 was isolated from wastewater and sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq system. Genomic analyses revealed that it was virulent phages and contained a circular double-stranded DNA genome, consisting of 170,496 nucleotides with an average G + C content of 37.67%. This study may provide possible alternative materials for phage therapy.
