Temperate bacteriophages play a pivotal role in the biology of their bacterial host. Of particular interest are bacteriophages infecting enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) due to their significant contribution to the pathogenicity of its host, most notably by encoding the key virulence factor of this pathogen, the Shiga toxin. To better understand the role of EHEC phages on the functionality of its host, we isolated eight temperate phages from clinical EHEC isolates and characterized their genomic composition, morphology, and receptor targeting. Morphological analysis identified one long-tailed siphophage, targeting the OmpC receptor for host recognition, whereas the other seven phages are short-tailed podophages and target the essential BamA protein. Genomic characterization revealed significant variations between the long- and short-tailed phages. Five of the eight isolated phages encode the potent Shiga toxin. Comparative analysis displays the typical lambdoid mosaicism, indicative of horizontal gene transfer driving evolution. These findings provide insights into the genetic and morphologic diversity and receptor specificity of EHEC phages, highlighting their role in the evolution and pathogenicity of clinical EHEC strains.IMPORTANCECharacterizing bacteriophages from clinical EHEC isolates is crucial in understanding the mechanisms underlying bacterial evolution and virulence. Despite the clinical relevance of EHEC bacteriophages, they remain underexplored, and particularly phage receptors are often not characterized. Studying temperate EHEC phages is essential in the development of strategies to address the global burden of these foodborne infections. Notably, identifying the phage receptors is critical in unraveling the specific interaction between phage and host. Knowledge of the phage receptors can provide insights into the mechanisms of phage infection, host range, and bacterial resistance and is fundamental in the design of targeted therapies like new antimicrobials, phage therapy, or prevention of those infections.
