Mycobacteriophages are viruses of Mycobacterium spp. with promising diagnostic and therapeutic potential. Phage genome exploration and characterization of their proteomes are essential to gain a better understanding of their role in phage biology. So far, about 2014 mycobacteriophages have been genomically defined and 1563 phage protein families (phamilies) are identified. However, the function of only a fraction (about 15%) is known and a majority of ORFs in...
