Bacteriophage Miami infects Klebsiella pneumoniae, a Gram-negative pathogen that is becoming an increasing threat to public health due to its multidrug resistance. Here, we describe the annotation of the 253,383-bp jumbo phage Miami genome sequence and its similarity to other myophages.
Enterococcus faecalis
is associated with antibiotic-resistant infections, and this study presents
E. faecalis
siphophage Sigurd. The 41,811-bp Sigurd genome is divided into two arms defined by long convergent predicted transcription units that are separated by a bidirectional rho-independent terminator. Sigurd has a small terminase that is closely related to
Bacillus subtilis
cos
phage phi105.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
