摘要
Widely studied Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strains ATCC 14028s and SL1344 harbor a cryptic ST64B prophage unable to produce infectious virions. We found that coculturing either strain with an isogenic sibling lacking the prophage leads to the appearance of active forms of the virus. Active phage originates from reversion of a +1 frameshift mutation at a monotonous G:C run in a presumptive tail assembly pseudogene.
