We report the genome sequences of Escherichia phage C600M2 (length, 88,162 bp; G+C content, 38.98%) and Escherichia phage CL1 (length, 87,820 bp; G+C content, 41.32%), which were isolated from a wastewater treatment plant in Qatar. Both Escherichia phage C600M2 and Escherichia phage CL1 genomes contain 128 protein-coding genes and 26 tRNAs.

Biological polyamines, such as spermine, spermidine, and putrescine, are abundant intracellular compounds mostly bound to nucleic acids. Due to their nucleophilic nature, polyamines easily react with apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites, DNA lesions that are constantly formed in DNA by spontaneous base loss and as intermediates of base excision repair. A covalent intermediate is formed, promoting DNA strand cleavage at the AP site, and is later hydrolyzed regenerating the polyamine.

The growing demand for minimally processed foods has heightened the risk of pathogenic contamination. Balancing antimicrobial efficacy with the preservation of probiotic activity remains a significant challenge. In this study, we employed phage display peptide library screening, combined with next-generation sequencing to identify the HIMPIQA domain, which selectively targets pathogenic Escherichia coli (E.

In this study, we identify and characterize a novel phage-inducible chromosomal island found in commensal Escherichia coli MP1. This novel element, EcCIMP1, is induced and mobilized by the temperate helper phage vB_EcoP_Kapi1. EcCIMP1 contributes to superinfection immunity against its helper phage, impacting bacterial competition outcomes.
