Complete Genome Sequence of Streptococcus pneumoniae Virulent Phage MS1.

ABSTRACT: The lytic Streptococcus pneumoniae phage MS1 was isolated from a throat swab of a patient with symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection. The genome of this siphophage has 56,075 bp, 42.3% G+C content, and 77 open reading frames, including queuosine biosynthesis genes. Phage MS1 is related to pneumococcal phage Dp-1.

Complete genome sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae phage JD001.

Project description:Klebsiella pneumoniae is a member of the family Enterobacteriaceae, opportunistic pathogens that are among the eight most prevalent infectious agents in hospitals. The emergence of multidrug-resistant strains of K. pneumoniae has became a public health problem globally. To develop an effective antimicrobial agent, we isolated a bacteriophage, named JD001, from seawater and sequenced its genome. Comparative genome analysis of phage JD001 with other K. pneumoniae bacteriophages revealed that phage JD001 has little similarity to previously published K. pneumoniae phages KP15, KP32, KP34, and phiKO2. Here we announce the complete genome sequence of JD001 and report major findings from the genomic analysis.

Complete Genome Sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae Phage Sweeny.

Project description:Klebsiella pneumoniae is a multidrug-resistant bacterium causing many severe hospital-acquired infections. Here, we describe siphophage Sweeny that infects K. pneumoniae Of its 78 predicted protein-encoding genes, a functional assignment was given to 36 of them. Sweeny is most closely related to T1-like phages at the protein level.

Characterization of MSlys, the endolysin of Streptococcus pneumoniae phage MS1.

Project description:Despite the use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines, the number of infections related to Streptococcus pneumoniae continues to be alarming. Herein, we identified, characterized the MSlys endolysin encoded in the phage MS1. We further tested its antimicrobial efficacy against planktonic and biofilm cells, assessing the culturability of cells and biofilm structure by scanning electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The modular MSlys endolysin consists of an amidase catalytic domain and a choline-binding domain. MSlys is active against isolates of children with otitis media, and conditions close to those found in the middle ear. Treatment with MSlys (2 h, 4 μM) reduced planktonic cultures by 3.5 log10 CFU/mL, and 24- and 48-h-old biofilms by 1.5 and 1.8 log10 CFU/mL, respectively. Imaging of the biofilms showed thinner and damaged structures compared to control samples. The recombinantly expressed MSlys may be a suitable candidate for treating pneumococcal infections, including otitis media.

Genome annotation and intraviral interactome for the Streptococcus pneumoniae virulent phage Dp-1.

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae causes several diseases, including pneumonia, septicemia, and meningitis. Phage Dp-1 is one of the very few isolated virulent S. pneumoniae bacteriophages, but only a partial characterization is currently available. Here, we confirmed that Dp-1 belongs to the family Siphoviridae. Then, we determined its complete genomic sequence of 56,506 bp. It encodes 72 open reading frames, of which 44 have been assigned a function. We have identified putative promoters, Rho-independent terminators, and several genomic clusters. We provide evidence that Dp-1 may be using a novel DNA replication system as well as redirecting host protein synthesis through queuosine-containing tRNAs. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of purified phage Dp-1 particles identified at least eight structural proteins. Finally, using comprehensive yeast two-hybrid screens, we identified 156 phage protein interactions, and this intraviral interactome was used to propose a structural model of Dp-1.

Complete Genome Sequence of the Temperate Klebsiella pneumoniae Phage KPP5665-2.

Project description:We describe here the genome sequence of the novel temperate Klebsiella pneumoniae phage KPP5665-2 isolated from a Klebsiella pneumoniae strain recovered from milk in Germany in 2016.
