Acinetobacter phage EAb13 Genome sequencing and assembly
The EAb13 phage was isolated in 2020 from raw sewage collected in Washington, DC, using an XDR respiratory isolate of A. baumannii, MRSN 423159. EAb13 has an unusually broad host range that was able to lyse 92/106 (86.8%) of diverse A. baumannii clinical isolates. The goal of this project is to sequence the EAb13 phage to facilitate research in to potentially therapeutic relevant bacteriophage.
