Metagenome-assembled complete genome of <i>Bohxovirus</i> , a virulent bacteriophage involved in the prediction of hospital-acquired pneumonia in intubated critically ill patients
We present the complete genome of a <i>Bohxovirus</i> species, a virulent phage targeting <i>Prevotella jejuni</i>, reconstructed from viral metagenomes in respiratory endotracheal aspirates of intubated critically ill patients. The 98-kbp bacteriophage, belonging to the <i>Suoliviridae</i> family, does not contain genes associated with antibiotic resistance or bacterial virulence.CLINICAL TRIALSClinicalTrials.gov numbers: NCT02003196 and NCT04793568.
