myovirus BS46 was isolated from sewage by J. S. Soothill in 1991. We have sequenced the genome of BS46 and found it to be almost unique. BS46 contains double-stranded DNA with a genome size of 94,068 bp and 176 predicted open reading frames. The gene encoding the tailspike that presumably possesses depolymerase activity toward the capsular polysaccharides of the bacterial host was identified.
肌尾噬菌体BS46于1991年由J. S. 苏西尔从污水中分离出来。我们对BS46的基因组进行了测序,发现它几乎是独一无二的。BS46含有双链DNA,基因组大小为94,068碱基对,有176个预测的开放阅读框。我们鉴定出了编码尾刺的基因,该尾刺可能对细菌宿主的荚膜多糖具有解聚酶活性。
