Project description:We use Illumina sequencing to monitor mutations in the bacteriophage T7 genome in the presence of T7 DNA polymerase that has an altered exonuclease active site. These alterations include mutation of key residues in the exonuclease active site.
Project description:The global transcriptional profile of novel T7-like Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage LUZ100 was obtained using the long read RNA sequencing technique ONT-cappable-seq. Using this approach we obtained a comprehensive genome-wide map of viral transcription start sites, terminators and transcription units and gained new insights in the molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation of T7-like temperate phages.
