Bioinformatic prediction of endolysin gene’s function in P. aeruginosa bacteriophages
Objective To find and analyze all the endolysin genes of 20 pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages. Methods Firstly
the entire open reading frame (ORF) of pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages was predicted. Secondly
similarity alignments
ClustalW alignments and automated knowledge-based protein modeling were performed and analyzed. Results Eight new endolysin and two holin genes were found in our research. The gene function was analyzed subsequently. Conclusion Bioinformatic prediction is an effective method to find and analyze the newly sequenced genes. The new endolysin and holin genes we found will be helpful in further studying the related genes.
