HighlightsSmall lytic phages (ssNA) use a single protein (Sgl) to cause host lysis.The 3 well-characterized Sgls target different steps in peptidoglycan biosynthesis.Hyperexpansion of the sequenced ssNA genomes in the recent years.Potential to discover new protein antibiotics.The small lytic phages (Microviridae and Leviviridae), effect bacterial lysis with the product of a single gene. The three well-studied single-gene lysis (Sgl) proteins (E of φX174, A 2 of Qβ, and Lys M of phage M) lack direct muralytic activity, and have been shown to function as ‘protein antibiotics’ by acting as noncompetitive inhibitors of conserved peptidoglycan (PG) biosynthesis enzymes, MurA, MraY, and MurJ respectively. The fourth, protein L of MS2, does not inhibit PG biosynthesis but instead is hypothesized to trigger host autolytic response through an unknown mechanism. Recent advances in meta-omics approaches have led to an explosion in the available genomes of small lytic phages. Of the thousands of new genomes, only one annotated Sgl shared some sequence similarity with a known Sgl (L of MS2), highlighting the diversity in Sgls. The newly available genomic space serves as an untapped resource for discovering novel Sgls.
