# Genome sequence and annotation of Arthrobacter globiformis phage Vulpecula (AS1) isolated from soil in Dahlonega, Georgia

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence and annotation of a soil-isolated bacteriophage called Vulpecula, which infects Arthrobacter globiformis.

## Contribution

The study provides a new genome annotation and analysis of a temperate phage from the AS1 subcluster.

## Key findings

- The phage Vulpecula has a genome of 37,766 bp with a GC content of 67.7%.
- Genome annotation identified 64 open reading frames and no tRNA genes.
- The phage Vulpecula shows ~98% sequence similarity to other AS1 phages Ruchi and Jamun.

## Abstract

Vulpecula, a temperate bacteriophage collected from soil in Dahlonega, Georgia using host Arthrobacter globiformis, is an AS1 subcluster virus of 37,766 bp (67.7% GC). Genome annotation suggests 64 open reading frames, no predicted tRNA genes, and ~98% sequence similarity to AS1 phages Ruchi (from GA) and Jamun (New Hampshire).
