AZ phages contain a single endolysin gene, but the location within the genome and the pham for the endolysin gene is not consistent across the entire cluster. At least three patterns are observed within the cluster. Example include: Phives - Endolysin as gp1 Elezi - Endolysin in middle of genome, gp25 Powerpuff - Endolysin in right arm of genome, gp59 |

Has anyone studied the holins in AZ? |

Hi Tammy, We've started looking at holins, but not exhaustively. Its difficult to conclusively identify holins, but there are candidates located proximal to some of the endolysins in AZ, but not in others. |
