The genome sequence of enterobacterial phage 7-11, which possesses an unusually elongated head

Published in: Archives of Virology | Issue 1/2011

Abstract

Phage 7-11 is a podovirus with an elongated head of 154 × 40 nm and a tail of 12 × 9 nm. The double-stranded DNA genome is 89.9 kb long, has a mol% G + C content of 44.1 and encodes 151 ORFs and six tRNAs. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that it is related to coliphage phiEco32.
