TL;DR
This paper presents the full genome sequence of a mycobacteriophage called LordLeafolot, which infects a specific strain of Mycobacterium smegmatis.
Contribution
The study provides a detailed genomic analysis of a new mycobacteriophage in subcluster C1 with a strictly lytic life cycle.
Findings
The genome of LordLeafolot is 155,266 bp long and encodes 235 predicted proteins, 32 tRNAs, and one tmRNA.
The absence of integrase and repressor genes suggests a strictly lytic life cycle.
LordLeafolot belongs to subcluster C1 and has myovirus morphology.
Abstract
The complete genome of LordLeafolot, a subcluster C1 virus displaying the myovirus morphology and infecting Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155, is 155,266 bp and encodes 235 predicted proteins, 32 tRNAs, and one tmRNA. The lack of identifiable integrase and repressor genes, along with failed attempts to establish lysogeny, indicates that LordLeafolot has a strictly lytic life cycle.
