Contribution of phages to the virulence of pathogenic mycobacteria
Bacteriophages have been known to contribute to the bacterial phenotype through lysogenic conversion. Many virulence factors in pathogenic bacteria are phage encoded. However, it is not known whether this is true in mycobacteria. A study by Pedulla et al, (2003) looking at the genome sequences of...
