Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria poses a global health emergency due to limited treatment options. Here, we report a lytic bacteriophage belonging to <i>Stephanstirmvirinae</i> family against an AMR <i>Escherichia coli</i> (ST2089). <i>Escherichia</i> phage iGC_PHA_EC001 is of genus <i>Phapecoctavirus</i> and 148,445 bp in length, encoding 269 predicted protein-coding sequences and 10 tRNAs. The phage encodes two lytic proteins containing phage_lysozyme (PF00959.22) and cell wall hydro ...[more]
