Project goals
To construct a metagenomic library of (bacterio)viral sequences from the arctic and use the high-throughput methods being developed in our lab to search for sequences of potential biotechnological applications. The library will be used to investigate the diversity of viral communities and what effect have the enzymatic activities associated with the virus on the bacteria.
