Interestingly, the TPP-independent phage phKSW1 (Extended Data Table 2) adsorbs considerably faster to GD01 (as does a BPs gp22 A604E mutant in M. smegmatis19) than its parent phage (Fig. 2b, middle panel) and shows only a small improvement in adsorption to the GD01 fadD23::Tn mutant relative to BPsΔ33HTH_HRM10 infection of GD01 (Fig. 2b). The gene discussed is TNS3; the disease is infection.
