Complete genome sequence of the newly discovered temperate Clostridioides difficile bacteriophage phiCDKH01 of the family Siphoviridae.


ABSTRACT: A temperate siphovirus, phiCDKH01, was obtained from a clinical isolate of Clostridioides difficile. The phage genome is a 45,089-bp linear double-stranded DNA molecule with an average G+C content of 28.7%. It shows low similarity to known phage genomes, except for phiCD24-1. Genomic and phylogenetic analysis revealed that phiCDKH01 is a newly discovered phage. Sixty-six putative ORFs were predicted in the genome, 37 of which code for proteins with predicted functions. The phiCDKH01 prophage was localized in the host genome. The results of this study increase our knowledge about the genetic diversity of tailed phages.
