Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Temperate Escherichia coli Bacteriophage, Kapi1, Which Modifies the O-Antigen and Contributes to the Competitiveness of Its Host during Colonization of the Murine Gastrointestinal Tract

In this study, we describe the isolation and characterization of novel bacteriophage vB_EcoP_Kapi1 (Kapi1) isolated from a strain of commensal Escherichia coli inhabiting the gastrointestinal tract of healthy mice. We show that Kapi1 is a temperate phage integrated into tRNA argW of strain MP1 and d...
