Correction for Ipoutcha et al., “A synthetic biology approach to assemble and reboot clinically relevant Pseudomonas aeruginosa tailed phages”

Key Points

• The DMS3 bacteriophage reported was incorrectly stated as wild type, impacting its characterization.
• It was actually a double knockout mutant with a 227 bp deletion and a 188 bp deletion.
• This correction is crucial for accurately assessing the engineered phage's effectiveness in therapeutic applications.
• Clarification of the mutation enhances the accuracy of related synthetic biology research efforts.
