AI Article Synopsis

  • - Three bacteriophages named AlleyCat, Edugator, and Guillsminger were isolated from enriched soil samples using a specific medium (mc155).
  • - All three belong to the same mycobacteriophage subcluster K5 and have genomes ranging from 62,112 to 63,344 base pairs.
  • - Each phage has between 92 to 99 predicted protein-coding genes and one tRNA, with Guillsminger being unique as the first mycobacteriophage found to carry an IS family transposon.

Article Abstract

Bacteriophages AlleyCat, Edugator, and Guillsminger were isolated on mc155 from enriched soil samples. All are members of mycobacteriophage subcluster K5, with genomes of 62,112 to 63,344 bp. Each genome contains 92 to 99 predicted protein-coding genes and one tRNA. Guillsminger is the first mycobacteriophage to carry an IS family transposon.
