T7 excess information was originally noticed and characterized by Dr. Schneider
in 1986. Recently we expanded our information theory analysis to all available
genomes of the T7 group, and found that all members of this group have excess
information at their promoters. We propose that the promoter excess information
can be explained by the takeover ratio, which was defined as the ratio between
information contents of the phage SD and the corresponding host SD. A paper
about this is in preparation.
