There is currently only one species in this genus: the type species Escherichia virus N4. (wikipedia.org)
Escherichia virus N4 is the type species of this genus and was originally isolated from sewers in Genoa, Italy and infects Escherichia coli K-12. (wikipedia.org)
Recently, a number of genetically related phages were isolated, infecting Silicibacter and Sulfitobacter (DSS3ɸ2 and EE36ɸ1) as well as a number of Pseudomonas phages (LUZ7, LIT1 and PEV2) Group: dsDNA Order: Caudovirales Family: Podoviridae Genus: Enquatrovirus Escherichia virus N4 The virus's virion have icosahedral (T=9) heads ~70 nm and short tails (10 nm), and contain short fibers originating from the junction between the head and tail. (wikipedia.org)
Escherichia phage N4 was isolated in 1966 in Italy and has remained a genomic orphan for a long time. (mdpi.com)
Phage1
By isolating novel phages and using sequence data and different tools for analysis like VICTOR (developed at the DSMZ), we also aim at getting more insight into the diversity of phages, pushing forward the viral taxonomy under the umbrella of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) and providing those for the whole phage researcher community.

Viruses3
In particular, the taxonomy of N4-like viruses lies in our responsibility. (dsmz.de)
A bacteriophage (from ' bacteria ' and Greek phagein , 'to eat') is any one of a number of viruses that infect bacteria. (wikidoc.org)
Bacteriophages may have a lytic cycle or a lysogenic cycle , but a few viruses are capable of carrying out both. (wikidoc.org)

Nucleotide sequence of the POL3 gene encoding DNA polymerase III (delta) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. (neb.com)

Genus1
Enquatrovirus is a genus of bacteriophages in the order Caudovirales, in the family Podoviridae. (wikipedia.org)
Bacteria5
PhagoMed Biopharma GmbH, a biotech company located in Vienna focusses on bacteriophage to overcome infections by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. (dsmz.de)
The phages lyse the host bacteria at 37°C, but enter the lysogenic cycle and become prophages in the chromosome of the host bacteria at 26°C. IMPORTANCE Mu-like bacteriophages of Y. pestis were isolated from M. himalayana of the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau in China. (bvsalud.org)
A switch from the lysogenic to the lytic cycle occurred when lysogenic bacteria were incubated from lower temperature to higher temperature (initially incubating at 26°C and shifting to 37°C). It is speculated that the temperature dependent lifestyle of bacteriophages may affect the population dynamics and pathogenicity of Y. pestis. (bvsalud.org)
Bacteriophages are much smaller than the bacteria they destroy - usually between 20 and 200 nm in size. (wikidoc.org)
D'Hérelle called the virus a bacteriophage or bacteria-eater (from the Greek phagein meaning to eat). (wikidoc.org)
Amino acid seq1
In some embodiments, the mutated HPV L1 capsid protein has an amino acid sequence alteration that modifies in the subject HPV serotype-specific immunogenicity of the capsid protein relative to a naturally-occurring capsid protein. (justia.com)

Typically, bacteriophages consist of an outer protein hull enclosing genetic material . (wikidoc.org)
The structure of the 3'-5' exonuclease domain of protein N388 closely resembles the corresponding region in the Klenow fragment despite minimal sequence identity. (embl.de)
Study2
This study is the report of isolation of Mu-like bacteriophages of Y. pestis from M. himalayana. (bvsalud.org)
In 2006 the UK Ministry of Defence took responsibility for a G8-funded Global Partnership Priority Eliava Project as a retrospective study to explore the potential of bacteriophages for the 21st century. (wikidoc.org)
