T7likevirus
''Teseptimavirus'' (synonyms ''T7 phage group'', ''T7-like phages'', ''T7-like viruses'', ''T7likevirus'') is a genus of viruses in the order ''Caudovirales'', in the family ''Autographiviridae'', in the subfamily ''Studiervirinae''. Bacteria serve as the natural host, with transmission achieved through passive diffusion. There are currently 17 species in this genus, including the type species ''Escherichia virus T7''. Taxonomy The following species are recognized: * ''Enterobacteria virus IME390'' * ''Escherichia virus 13a'' * ''Escherichia virus 64795ec1'' * ''Escherichia virus C5'' * ''Escherichia virus CICC80001'' * ''Escherichia virus Ebrios'' * ''Escherichia virus EG1'' * ''Escherichia virus HZ2R8'' * ''Escherichia virus HZP2'' * ''Escherichia virus N30'' * ''Escherichia virus NCA'' * ''Escherichia virus T7'' * ''Salmonella virus 3A8767'' * ''Salmonella virus Vi06'' * ''Stenotrophomonas virus IME15'' * ''Yersinia virus YpPY'' * ''Yersinia virus YpsPG'' Structure Sp6likevi ...

Escherichia Virus T7
Bacteriophage T7 (or the T7 phage) is a bacteriophage, a virus that infects bacteria. It infects most strains of ''Escherichia coli'' and relies on these hosts to propagate. Bacteriophage T7 has a Lytic cycle, lytic life cycle, meaning that it destroys the cell it infects. It also possesses several properties that make it an ideal phage for experimentation: its purification and concentration have produced consistent values in chemical analyses; it can be rendered noninfectious by exposure to UV light; and it can be used in phage display to clone RNA-binding protein, RNA binding proteins. Discovery In a 1945 study by Demerec and Fano, T7 was used to describe one of the seven phage types (T1 to T7) that grow lytically on ''Escherichia coli;'' although all seven phages were numbered arbitrarily, phages with odd numbers, or T-odd phages, were later discovered to share morphological and biochemical features that distinguish them from T-even phages.
