A temperate bacteriophage, IME1320_01, was induced by mitomycin C treatment from Corynebacterium striatum. This phage possesses a double-stranded DNA genome of 40,086 bp with a G+C content of 58%. A total of 53 putative open reading frames (ORFs) were identified in its genome. BLASTn analysis revealed that IME1320_01 had the highest sequence similarity to Corynebacterium striatum strain 216, with a genome homology coverage of 44% and highest sequence identity of 95%. The termini of the phage genome was non-redundant, with a 13-nt 3'-protruding cohesive end. To the best of our knowledge, phage IME1320_01 is the first inducible phage to be identified in Corynebacterium striatum.
一株温和噬菌体 IME1320_01 经丝裂霉素 C 诱导自棒状杆菌属的条纹状亚种分离而得。该噬菌体拥有一个 40086bp 的双链 DNA 基因组,GC 含量为 58%。在其基因组中总共鉴定出 53 个推定的开放阅读框(ORFs)。BLASTn 分析表明,IME1320_01 与棒状杆菌属菌株 216 具有最高的序列相似性,基因组同源性覆盖率为 44%,最高序列同一性为 95%。噬菌体基因组的末端是非冗余的,具有 13 个核苷酸的 3’突出粘性末端。据我们所知,噬菌体 IME1320_01 是首次在棒状杆菌属条纹状亚种中鉴定到的可诱导噬菌体。
