Project description:Here, we describe LilHazelnut, a novel mycobacteriophage that infects Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155. LilHazelnut is a cluster Q phage that shares 99% nucleotide identity with phage Giles, is 53,746 bp in length, and has a G+C content of 67.5%. LilHazelnut is a temperate Siphoviridae virus, as is typical of cluster Q family members.
Project description:Waterfoul is a newly isolated temperate siphovirus of Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155. It was identified as a member of the K5 cluster of Mycobacterium phages and has a 61,248-bp genome with 95 predicted genes.
Project description:Mycobacteriophage CrystalP is a newly isolated phage infecting Mycobacterium smegmatis strain mc2155. CrystalP has a 76,483-bp genome and is predicted to contain 143 protein-coding and 2 tRNA genes, including repressor and integrase genes consistent with a temperate lifestyle. CrystalP is related to the mycobacteriophages Toto and Kostya and to other Cluster E phages.
Project description:Novel mycobacteriophage XianYue was isolated in Northeast Georgia and infects Mycobacteria smegmatis mc2155. Actinobacteriophages which share at least 50% nucleotide identity are grouped into clusters, with XianYue in cluster A2. Its genome is 52,907 bp with 91 open reading frames (ORFs) and 62.9% GC content, and it shares 86.51% nucleotide identity with mycobacteriophage Trixie.
