pubmed-article:20889772 | pubmed:abstractText | In deep-sea hydrothermal vent communities, viruses play very important roles. However vent thermophilic bacteriophages remain largely unexplored. In this investigation, a novel vent Geobacillus bacteriophage, D6E, was characterized. Based on comparative genomics and proteomics analyses, the results showed an extensive mosaicism of D6E genome with other mesophilic or thermophilic phages. | lld:pubmed |
