Cyanophage-encoded lipid desaturases: oceanic distribution, diversity and function.

The ISME journal - 1 Feb 2018

Abstract excerpt

Cyanobacteria are among the most abundant photosynthetic organisms in the oceans; viruses infecting cyanobacteria (cyanophages) can alter cyanobacterial populations, and therefore affect the local food web and global biochemical cycles. These phages carry auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs), which rewire various metabolic pathways in the infected host cell, resulting in increased phage fitness. Coping with stress...
