摘要

Pseudoalteromonas is a group of marine bacteria widespread in diverse marine sediments, producing a wide range of bioactive compounds. However, only a limited number of Pseudoalteromonas phages have been isolated and studied. In this study, a novel lytic Pseudoalteromonas phage, denoted as vB_PalP_Y7, was isolated from sewage samples collected at the Seafood Market in Qingdao, China. vB_PalP_Y7 remained stable across a wide range of temperatures (−20–50 °C) and a wide pH range (3–12). The vB_PalP_Y7 phage harbors a linear double-stranded DNA molecule of 57 699 base pairs (bp) with a G+C content of 45.90%. Furthermore, it is predicted to contain 58 open reading frames (ORFs). Phylogenetic analysis and protein network relationship analysis revealed low similarity between vB_PalP_Y7 and viruses in the ICTV and IMG/VR4 database, suggesting that vB_PalP_Y7 may be a potential new genus, Miuvirus. This study contributed valuable insights to comprehend the relationship between Pseudoalteromonas phages and their host organisms.
