RecFinder – a new tool to find phage proteins responsible for host recognition

(Bacterio)phages are bacterial viruses that represent the most abundant and genetically diverse biological entities on the planet [1,2]. The largest virus group, the order Caudovirales (containing 96% of all known phages), has evolved recognition peptides for efficient virus-host interaction [3]. The peptides, usually located at the phage tail fiber, baseplate and other tail proteins mediate recognition and att...
