Determination of essential and variable residues in pediocin PA-1 by NNK scanning.

abstract：:Viruses are the most abundant and diverse biological entities within soils, yet their ecological impact is largely unknown. Defining how soil viral communities change with perturbation or across environments will contribute to understanding the larger ecological significance of soil viruses. A new approach to examinin...
