Abstract excerpt
Phage genomic information and the nature of host-phage interactions are important for phage applications. In this study, Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage K5 is characterized as a linear double-stranded genomic DNA molecule of 93,754 bp with identical 1182-bp direct terminal repeats. Comparative genomic analysis reveals that phage K5 is highly homologous to the "PaP1-like" phages. Thirteen mutants resistant to phage...
