Modular architecture of the T4 phage superfamily: a conserved core genome and a plastic periphery.

Virology - 5 Jun 2007

Comeau André M, Bertrand Claire, Letarov Andrei, Tétart Françoise, Krisch H M

Abstract excerpt

Among the most numerous objects in the biosphere, phages show enormous diversity in morphology and genetic content. We have sequenced 7 T4-like phages and compared their genome architecture. All seven phages share a core genome with T4 that is interrupted by several hyperplastic regions (HPRs) wh...
