The JUPITER project focuses on jumbo phages, large viruses that infect bacteria, to explore their uncharacterized genes. It aims to understand how these genes affect their host's cellular machinery and could lead to advancements in biotechnology.
Jumbo phages are large viruses of prokaryotes with 200 to 800 kilo base-pair (kb) genomes, well beyond the size of small phages that average around 50 kb.
While investigation of small phages over the last century has transformed fundamental and translational biosciences, jumbo phages research is only in its infancy.
The majority of jumbo phage genes are uncharacterized and cannot be annotated by comparative genomics.
Thus, it is unknown how the genes function in jumbo phage biology.
