“…In contrast, lcp2 is positioned elsewhere in the tree and has many Type Ia domains; likewise, the predicted ParB of the Streptomyces plasmids pZL12 (Zhong et al ., ), pSLE1, and pSLE2 (Gomez‐Escribano et al ., ), also have many Type Ia domains. The cassettes from ΦHAP‐1, pVv01 and Vp58.5 (Mobberley et al ., ; Zabala et al ., ; Hammerl et al ., ), exhibit Type Ib similarities, including ParB‐like genes adjacent to parA that were not previously predicted. (C) Rate of evolution of ParA and ParB genes.…”

“…Although extrachromosomally replicating prophages seem to be a relatively uncommon life style among temperate phages compared to chromosomal integration, related systems have been described in phages of diverse bacterial hosts, including Leptospira interrogans [lpc3, (Zhu et al ., )], Streptomyces sp . [pZL12, (Zhong et al ., )], Vibrio vulnificus [pVv01, (Hammerl et al ., )], Yersinia enterocolitica [PY54, (Hertwig et al ., )], Vibrio parahaemolyticus [VP58.5, (Zabala et al ., )], and Halomonas aquamarina [ΦHAP‐1, (Mobberley et al ., )].…”

More than 180 individual phages infecting hosts in the phylum Actinobacteria have been sequenced and grouped into Cluster A because of their similar overall nucleotide sequences and genome architectures. These Cluster A phages are either temperate or derivatives of temperate parents, and most have an integration cassette near the center of the genome containing an integrase gene and attP. However, about 20% of the phages lack an integration cassette, which is replaced by a 1.4 kbp segment with predicted partitioning functions, including plasmid-like parA and parB genes. Phage RedRock forms stable lysogens in Mycobacterium smegmatis in which the prophage replicates at 2.4 copies/chromosome and the partitioning system confers prophage maintenance. The parAB genes are expressed upon RedRock infection of M. smegmatis, but are down-regulated once lysogeny is established by binding of RedRock ParB to parS-L, one of two centromere-like sites flanking the parAB genes. The RedRock parS-L and parS-R sites are composed of eight directly repeated copies of an 8 bp motif that is recognized by ParB. The actinobacteriophage parABS cassettes span considerable sequence diversity and specificity, providing a suite of tools for use in mycobacterial genetics.

“…The Vibrio vulnificus 79258 bp phage pVv01 is temperate, has a circular prophage plasmid, and Mitomycin C induces it to produce infectious virions. It has been reported to be is distantly related to phage P1 (Hammerl et al , 2014). The pVv01 MCP is ≥73% identical to proteins encoded by genes in the genomes of Vibrio paraheamolyticus , V. nigripulchritudo, V. owensii and Vibrio sp.…”

The genome sequence of Escherichia coli tailed phage D6 and the diversity of Enterobacteriales circular plasmid prophages

The temperate Escherichia coli bacteriophage D6 can exist as a circular plasmid prophage, and we report here its 91,159bp complete genome sequence. It is a distant relative of the well-studied phage P1, but it is sufficiently different that it typifies a previously undescribed tailed phage type or cluster. Examination of the database of bacterial genome sequences revealed that phage P1 and D6 prophage plasmids are common in the Enterobacteriales, and in addition, previously described Salmonella phage SSU5 represents a different type of temperate tailed phage with a circular plasmid prophage that is also very common in this host order. This analysis also discovered additional divergent clusters of putative circular plasmid prophages within the two larger P1 and SSU5 groups (superclusters) that inhabit the Enterobacteriales as well as bacteria in several other orders in the Gamma-proteobacteria class. Very few of these sequences are annotated as putative prophages.

“…Here, we announce the phage genome of VcP032, recovered from V. cholerae serotype O1 El Tor Ogawa strain CH32, which was isolated in 1973. Phage induction was activated by mitomycin C (12.5 µg/ml) treatment ( 7 ). Concentrated phages were purified by CsCl-step gradient centrifugation ( 8 ).…”
