title: Analysis of Antiphage Systems in Vibrio Cholerae O1 El Tor Biotype Strains
abstract: Introduction: Cholera lytic phages contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of Vibrio cholerae. To protect against the phages, the pathogen has acquired various resistance mechanisms. Objective: To identify antiphage systems located on mobile genetic elements in V. cholerae serogroup O1 El Tor biotype strains. Materials and methods: Nucleotide sequences of complete genomes of 77 toxigenic V. cholerae O1 El Tor strains imported to the Russian Federation and neighboring countries in 1970–
