# Genome Sequence of Arthrobacter globiformis B-2979 Phage Raphaella

## TL;DR

This paper describes the genome sequence of a soil-isolated bacteriophage called Raphaella, which infects the bacterium Arthrobacter globiformis.

## Contribution

The study provides a detailed genomic analysis of a new bacteriophage in the Actinobacteriophages AY cluster.

## Key findings

- Raphaella's genome is 51,692 base pairs long with a GC content of 62.6%.
- The phage contains 96 putative protein-encoding genes and one tRNA gene.
- It belongs to the AY cluster of Actinobacteriophages based on gene content similarity.

## Abstract

Bacteriophage Raphaella was isolated from a soil sample collected in Springfield, MO using

Arthrobacter globiformis

B2979-SEA
.
Raphaella has a genome of 51692 base pairs with a GC content of 62.6%, 96 putative protein encoding genes and one tRNA. It has been placed in the AY cluster of Actinobacteriophages based on gene content similarity.
