Complete genome sequence of E. coli lytic bacteriophage BAU.Micro_ELP-22, isolated from sewage water, Bangladesh

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: lytic bacteriophage BAU.Micro_ELP-22 was isolated from sewage wastewater as a therapeutic agent alternative to antibiotics. The phage genome is 373,488 bp in length, encoding 744 protein-coding sequences and 7 tRNAs, and contains no antibiotic resistance, virulence, or temperate marker genes, which specifies its potentiality as a compatible phage therapy candidate.
