The complete genome sequence of the virulent bacteriophage PMBT3, isolated on the proteolytic Pseudomonas grimontii strain MBTL2-21, showed no significant similarity to other known phage genome sequences, making this phage the first reported to infect a strain of P. grimontii. Electron microscopy revealed PMBT3 to be a member of the family Siphoviridae, with notably long and flexible whiskers. The linear, double-stranded genome of 87,196 bp has a mol% G+C content of 60.4 and contains 116 predicted protein-encoding genes. A putative tellurite resistance (terB) gene, originally reported to occur in the genome of a bacterium, was detected in the genome of phage PMBT3.

第一个格氏假单胞菌噬菌体 PMBT3 的表征。

在蛋白水解的格氏假单胞菌菌株 MBTL2-21 上分离的毒力噬菌体 PMBT3 的完整基因组序列与其他已知的噬菌体基因组序列没有显着相似性，这使得该噬菌体成为第一个被报道感染格氏假单胞菌菌株的噬菌体。电子显微镜显示 PMBT3 是 Siphoviridae 家族的成员，具有长而柔韧的胡须。87,196 bp 的线性双链基因组的 mol% G+C 含量为 60.4，并包含 116 个预测的蛋白质编码基因。在噬菌体 PMBT3 的基因组中检测到一个假定的亚碲酸盐抗性 (terB) 基因，最初据报道出现在细菌的基因组中。
