Abstract

An active prophage, Vibrio phage ValM-yong1, was isolated from pathogenic Vibrio alginolyticus by mitomycin C induction. This phage is a member of the family Myoviridae and contains a head approximately 90 nm in diameter and a retractable tail approximately 250 nm in length. The genome of the phage is 33,851 bp in length with a G+C content of 45.6%. The noteworthy features of Vibrio phage ValM-yong1 are its flower-like head and genomic mosaicism. Here, we focus on presenting the genomic characterization of the virus.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
