A suggested classification for two groups of Campylobacter myoviruses
Javed, Muhammad Afzal; Ackermann, H. W.; Azeredo, Joana; Carvalho, Carla M.; Connerton, Ian; Evoy, Stephane; Hammerl, Jens Andre; Hertwig, StefanMost Campylobacter bacteriophages isolated to date have long contractile tails and belong to the family Myoviridae. Based on their morphology, genome size and endonuclease restriction profile, Campylobacter phages were originally divided into three groups. The recent genome sequencing of seven virulent campylophages reveal further details of the relationships between these phages at the genome organization leve...
Genomic characterization of the Staphylococcus epidermidis-specific bacteriopha...
Melo, Luís D. R.; Oliveira, F.; Sillankorva, Sanna; Pérez-Cabezas, B.; Ackermann, H. W.; Kropinski, Andrew M.; Vilanova, Manuel; Azeredo, JoanaStaphylococcus epidermidis is one of the most frequent causative agents of nosocomial infections, predominantly in patients with indwelling medical devices. This microrganism may form biofilms which are microbial structures very tolerant to the host immune defenses and to antibiotherapy. Therefore, studies are needed in order to develop effective methods for biofilm control. Currently, bacteriophages (phages) a...
Genomic and proteomic characterization of the broad host range Salmonella phage...
Santos, Sílvio; Kropinski, Andrew M.; Ceyssens, P. J.; Ackermann, H. W.; Villegas, A.; Carvalho, Carla M.; Lavigne, Rob; Krylov, V. N.; Ferreira, E. C.(Bacterio)phage PVP-SE1, isolated from a German wastewater plant, presents a high potential value as a biocontrol agent and as a diagnostic tool, even compared to the well-studied typing phage Felix 01, due to its broad lytic spectrum against different Salmonella strains. Sequence analysis of its genome (145,964 bp) shows it to be terminally redundant and circularly permuted. Its G C content, 45.6 mol%, is lowe...
