A new virulent phage, SWEP2, infecting the Arthrobacter sp. 5B strain, was isolated from black soil samples in northeastern China. SWEP2 has a latent period of 80 min and a burst size of 45 PFU (evaluated at an MOI of 0.1). Genomic analysis revealed that the 43,398-bp dsDNA genome of phage SWEP2 contains 64 open reading frames (ORFs) and one tRNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis indicated a close relationship between SWEP2 and Arthrobacter phage Liebe, with 82.98% identity and a query coverage of 48%. Based on its distinct phenotypic and genetic characteristics, SWEP2 is identified as a novel Arthrobacter phage.
一种新的烈性噬菌体 SWEP2 从中国东北的黑土样本中分离出来,它感染节杆菌属 5B 菌株。SWEP2 的潜伏期为 80 分钟,爆发量为 45PFU(在 MOI 为 0.1 的情况下评估)。基因组分析表明,噬菌体 SWEP2 的 43398bpdsDNA 基因组包含 64 个开放阅读框(ORFs)和一个 tRNA 基因。系统发育分析表明,SWEP2 与节杆菌噬菌体 Liebe 密切相关,同源性为 82.98%,查询覆盖率为 48%。基于其独特的表型和遗传特征,SWEP2 被鉴定为一种新型节杆菌噬菌体。
