Phages of Pseudomonas

Pseudomonas

Abstract

A large number of bacteriophages have been isolated and analyzed in Pseudomonas. Many of them have been used as tools for epidemiological studies (phage typing) and for genetic analysis by transduction40. Some have been developed as molecular biological tools for Pseudomonas; for example, the D3l12 transposable phage-derived cloning system15, ϕCTX-derived integration-proficient vectors37, and the D3 phage-derived cosmid vector95. Furthermore, infections of some temperate phages have been demonstrated to confer new phenotypes to the host strains (lysogenic or phage conversion), and thus played important roles in generating the genetic and phenotypic diversity of Pseudomonas 30, 38, 64. From the clinical point of view, virulent phages have been regarded as potential therapeutic tools for Pseudomonas infections, the treatment of which are often very difficult because of their high resistance to antibiotics103, 104. Despite such importance of bacteriophages in various aspects, only limited knowledge about the biological and genetic features of Pseudomonas phages were available, though several RNA phages and filamentous phages have been extensively studied as model systems, for replication, gene regulation, morphogenesis, and structural biology of the macromolecules. However, by the recent progress in sequencing technology, it is now easy to obtain the whole genome sequence information of bacteriophages, which has considerably expanded our knowledge on the biological features of Pseudoinonas phages.
