- W4225611669 abstract "Viruses that infect different actinobacterial host species are known as actinobacteriophages. They are composed of highly divergent and mosaic genomes due to frequent gene exchange between their bacterial hosts and related viral species. This is also reflected by the adaptive incorporation of host transcription factors (TFs) into phage regulatory networks. Previous studies discovered Lsr2-type and WhiB-type regulators encoded by actinobacteriophage genomes. However, limited information is available about their distribution, evolution, and impact on host species. In this study, we computationally screened the distribution of known bacterial and phage TFs inside 2951 complete actinobacteriophage genomes and identified 13 different TF domains. Among those, WhiB, Lsr2, MerR, and Cro/CI-like proteins were widespread and found in more than 10% of the analyzed actinobacteriophage genomes. Neighboring genomic context analysis of the whiB and lsr2 loci showed group-specific conservation of gene synteny and potential involvement of these genes in diverse regulatory functions. Both genes were significantly enriched in temperate phages, and the Lsr2-encoding genomes featured an overall lower GC content. Phylogenetic analysis of WhiB and Lsr2 proteins showed the grouping of phage sequences within bacterial clades, suggesting gene acquisition by phages from their bacterial host species or by multiple, independent acquisition events. Overall, our study reports the global distribution of actinobacteriophage regulatory proteins and sheds light on their origin and evolution. IMPORTANCE Actinobacteriophages are viruses that infect bacterial species of the diverse phylum of Actinobacteria. Phages engage in a close relationship with their bacterial host. This is also reflected by the adoption of genetic material from their host and its incorporation into phage regulatory circuits. In this study, we systematically searched the genomes of actinobacteriophages for the presence of transcription factor domains. We show that proteins belonging to the regulator families of WhiB and Lsr2 belong to the most abundant regulatory proteins encoded by actinobacteriophages. Further phylogenetic analysis shed light on their origin and evolution. Altogether, this study provides an important basis for further experimental investigation of their role in the coordination of the phage life cycle and their interaction with the host regulatory network in this important bacterial phylum." @default.
