Biological characterization and genomic analysis of the newly discovered mycobacteriophage WST1

Abstract The rising prevalence of multidrug-resistant mycobacteria necessitates novel therapeutic strategies. Phages targeting clinically relevant mycobacteria remain scarce, lytic phages represent promising alternatives. In this study, we isolated mycobacterium phage WST1 from wastewater, exhibitin...
