Identification of prophages in bacterial genomes by dinucleotide relative abundance difference.

Identification of prophages in bacterial genomes by dinucleotide relative abundance difference.

BACKGROUND: Prophages are integrated viral forms in bacterial genomes that have been found to contribute to interstrain genetic variability. Many virulence-associated genes are reported to be prophage encoded. Present computational methods to detect prophages are either by identifying possible essen...
