## TL;DR

This paper describes the genome of a new siphovirus called Soos, isolated from soil and infecting a specific bacterium.

## Contribution

The paper presents the genome sequence of Soos, a rare member of the CP cluster of actinobacteriophages.

## Key findings

- Soos has a 57,509 bp circularly permuted genome.
- The genome encodes 87 predicted protein-coding genes.
- Soos is one of only three known phages in cluster CP.

## Abstract

Novel actinobacteriophage Soos was isolated and purified from Southern Indiana soil using host Gordonia rubripertincta NRRL B-16540. Sequencing revealed a 57,509 bp circularly permuted genome encoding 87 predicted protein-coding genes. Soos is only the third phage in cluster CP, along with phages Clawz and Sting.
