Article Synopsis
- Bacteriophages, which infect bacteria in various environments, play a key role in the evolution of bacterial communities, but their host ranges are not well understood.
- Through computational analysis of 40 cluster P mycobacteriophages from six subclusters, researchers found that subcluster P1 phages are restricted to Mycobacterium, while subclusters P2-P6 can infect other genera, some linked to human diseases.
- The study also revealed that most cluster P mycobacteriophages possess a conserved immunity system, suggesting a genetic mechanism that influences their life cycle, which could limit their effectiveness in antibacterial treatments.
