Complete Genome Sequences of Three phi29-Like Bacillus cereus Group Podoviridae.

ABSTRACT: Three double-stranded DNA phi29-like Bacillus cereus group bacteriophages, BeachBum, Harambe, and SerPounce, were identified and characterized. BeachBum and Harambe are closely related but are remarkably different from previously identified phi29-like phages. SerPounce is substantially closer to other phi29-like phages, enabling the identification of its prohead RNA (pRNA) gene.

Genome Sequences of Three Novel Bacillus cereus Bacteriophages.

Project description:The Bacillus cereus group is an assemblage of highly related firmicute bacteria that cause a variety of diseases in animals, including insects and humans. We announce three high-quality, complete genome sequences of bacteriophages we isolated from soil samples taken at the bases of fruit trees in Utah County, Utah. While two of the phages (Shanette and JL) are highly related myoviruses, the bacteriophage Basilisk is a siphovirus.

Complete Genome Sequences of Bacillus cereus Group Phages AaronPhadgers, ALPS, Beyonphe, Bubs, KamFam, OmnioDeoPrimus, Phireball, PPIsBest, YungSlug, and Zainny.

Project description:Here, we report genome sequences of 10 Bacillus cereus group-infecting bacteriophages. Each virus was isolated from an environmental sample, contained a double-stranded DNA genome, and belonged to the Myoviridae family. Nine phages exhibit a conserved genome structure, and one phage appears novel in genome structure, sequence, and protein content.

Predicting genome terminus sequences of Bacillus cereus-group bacteriophage using next generation sequencing data.

Project description:Most tailed bacteriophages (phages) feature linear dsDNA genomes. Characterizing novel phages requires an understanding of complete genome sequences, including the definition of genome physical ends.We sequenced 48 Bacillus cereus phage isolates and analyzed Next-generation sequencing (NGS) data to resolve the genome configuration of these novel phages. Most assembled contigs featured reads that mapped to both contig ends and formed circularized contigs. Independent assemblies of 31 nearly identical I48-like Bacillus phage isolates allowed us to observe that the assembly programs tended to produce random cleavage on circularized contigs. However, currently available assemblers were not capable of reporting the underlying phage genome configuration from sequence data. To identify the genome configuration of sequenced phage in silico, a terminus prediction method was developed by means of 'neighboring coverage ratios' and 'read edge frequencies' from read alignment files. Termini were confirmed by primer walking and supported by phylogenetic inference of large DNA terminase protein sequences.The Terminus package using phage NGS data along with the contig circularity could efficiently identify the proximal positions of phage genome terminus. Complete phage genome sequences allow a proposed characterization of the potential packaging mechanisms and more precise genome annotation.
