Complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas Phage Motto (2022)
Journal Article
Manohar, P., Loganathan, A., Nachimuthu, R., Loh, B., Ma, L., Turner, D., & Leptihn, S. (2022). Complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas Phage Motto. Microbiology Resource Announcements, 11(11), https://doi.org/10.1128/mra.00740-22

We describe the complete genome sequence of bacteriophage Motto, which infects clinical strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Motto is a T1-like siphovirus related to members of the family Drexlerviridae and has a capsid width of;57 nm and a tail length...

The control of waterborne pathogenic bacteria in fresh water using a biologically active filter (2022)
Journal Article
Steven, J. A. C., Thorn, R. M. S., Robinson, G. M., Turner, D., Lee, J. E., & Reynolds, D. M. (2022). The control of waterborne pathogenic bacteria in fresh water using a biologically active filter. npj Clean Water, 5(1), 30. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41545-022-00169-y

The aim of this study was to investigate the control of three species of bacteria commonly associated with biologically contaminated water, using biofiltration. In this study, a laboratory-scale biofilter system was used to investigate the control of...

Workshop on viral genomics and taxonomy (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Turner, D., Adriaenssens, E. M., & Kropinski, A. M. (2022, June). Workshop on viral genomics and taxonomy. Presented at Viruses of Microbes 2022, Guimaraes, Portugal

How many of us have isolated and sequenced a phage, gotten reads back from the sequencing facility and thought "What now?" How can I assemble the data, and should I use an automated pipeline (DFAST, RASTtk, PHANOTATE) to annotate the genome, or shall... Read More about Workshop on viral genomics and taxonomy.

Classification of bacterial viruses in the class Caudoviricetes (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Turner, D., & Adriaenssens, E. M. (2022, June). Classification of bacterial viruses in the class Caudoviricetes. Presented at Virus Taxonomy in the Age of Genomics, Pembroke College, University of Oxford

The classification of bacterial viruses has undergone substantial change in recent years as a direct result of significant increases in the number of sequenced genomes. These data revealed that the morphological families Myoviridae, Siphoviridae and... Read More about Classification of bacterial viruses in the class Caudoviricetes.

ICTV virus taxonomy profile: Chaseviridae 2022 (2022)
Journal Article
Anany, H., Mahadevan, P., Turner, D., Adriaenssens, E. M., Kropinski, A. M., & ICTV Report Consortium. (2022). ICTV virus taxonomy profile: Chaseviridae 2022. Journal of General Virology, 103(4), https://doi.org/10.1099/jgv.0.001715

Members of the family Chaseviridae are lytic bacterial viruses infecting representatives of the bacterial class Gammaproteobacteria. Chaseviruses have a global distribution. Virions of members of this family have a myovirus morphology (icosahedral he... Read More about ICTV virus taxonomy profile: Chaseviridae 2022.

Diversity of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and bacteriophage-mediated spread of the Oxa23 carbapenemase (2022)
Journal Article
Abouelfetouh, A., Mattock, J., Turner, D., Li, E., & Evans, B. A. (2022). Diversity of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and bacteriophage-mediated spread of the Oxa23 carbapenemase. Microbial Genomics, 8(2), Article 000752. https://doi.org/10.1099/mgen.0.000752

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are prevalent in low- and middle-income countries such as Egypt, but little is known about the molecular epidemiology and mechanisms of resistance in these settings. Here, we characterize carbapenem-resist... Read More about Diversity of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and bacteriophage-mediated spread of the Oxa23 carbapenemase.
