Abstract

Here, we describe the complete genome sequence of siphophage Shivani, a T5-like constituent phage in the therapeutic phage cocktail IntestiPhage developed for bacterial gastroenteritis. Shivani was isolated against a foodborne pathogen, Salmonella enterica, which is one of the leading causes of gastroenteritis.

Highlights

  • We describe the complete genome sequence of siphophage Shivani, a T5-like constituent phage in the therapeutic phage cocktail IntestiPhage developed for bacterial gastroenteritis

  • Bacteriophage Shivani was isolated from IntestiPhage

  • Morphology was determined using transmission electron microscopy performed at the Texas A&M University Microscopy and Imaging Center

Summary

Introduction

We describe the complete genome sequence of siphophage Shivani, a T5-like constituent phage in the therapeutic phage cocktail IntestiPhage developed for bacterial gastroenteritis. IntestiPhage (developed by the George Eliava Institute of Bacteriophages, Microbiology, and Virology, Tbilisi, Georgia) is a therapeutic product against several gastroenteritis-causing bacteria. IntestiPhage consists of 23 different phages targeting various enteric pathogens [2]. We present the complete genome sequence of one of the component phages of IntestiPhage, a T5-like siphophage, Shivani.
