Bas E. Dutilh,Noriko A. Cassman,Katelyn McNair,Savannah E. Sanchez,Genivaldo G. Z. Silva,Lance Boling,Jeremy J. Barr,Daan R. Speth,Victor Seguritan,Ramy K. Aziz,Ramy K. Aziz,Ben Felts,Elizabeth A. Dinsdale,John L. Mokili,Robert Edwards +14 more
TL;DR: The discovery of a previously unidentified bacteriophage present in the majority of published human faecal metagenomes, which is referred to as crAssphage and predicted to have a Bacteroides host for this phage, consistent with Bactseroides-related protein homologues and a unique carbohydrate-binding domain encoded in the phage genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Piggyback-the-Winner model wherein temperate dynamics become increasingly important in ecosystems with high microbial densities is proposed; thus ‘more microbes, fewer viruses’ is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational approaches to predict bacteriophage–host relationships
Robert Edwards,Katelyn McNair,Karoline Faust,Jeroen Raes,Jeroen Raes,Bas E. Dutilh,Bas E. Dutilh,Bas E. Dutilh +7 more
TL;DR: Analysis of 820 phages with annotated hosts shows how current knowledge and insights about the interaction mechanisms and ecology of coevolving phages and bacteria can be exploited to predict phage–host relationships, with potential relevance for medical and industrial applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
PHACTS, a computational approach to classifying the lifestyle of phages
TL;DR: The Phage Classification Tool Set (PHACTS) utilizes a novel similarity algorithm and a supervised Random Forest classifier to make a prediction whether the lifestyle of a phage, described by its proteome, is virulent or temperate.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that crAssphage is a benign cosmopolitan virus that may have coevolved with the human lineage and is an integral part of the normal human gut virome.
